Orthoptochus squamiger
Orthoptochus squamiger is a species of broad-nosed weevil in the family Curculionidae, subfamily Entiminae. First described by Casey in 1888, this species is known from a very limited number of observations and museum records. It belongs to the tribe Peritelini, a group of weevils primarily associated with woody plants. The species appears to be restricted to the southwestern United States and adjacent Mexico.
