Guides
Amotus
Amotus is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae, established by Casey in 1888. The genus contains at least three described species distributed in North America. As members of the subfamily Entiminae and tribe Tanymecini, these weevils share characteristics with other broad-nosed weevils, including a broad, short rostrum. The genus is poorly documented in ecological literature.
Amotus setulosus
Amotus setulosus is a species of broad-nosed weevil in the family Curculionidae, described by Schönherr in 1847. As a member of the subfamily Entiminae, it possesses the characteristic short, broad snout typical of this group. The species is known to occur in North America.
Isodacrys ovipennis
Isodacrys ovipennis is a species of broad-nosed weevil in the family Curculionidae, subfamily Entiminae. The species was described by Schaffer in 1908. Available records indicate a distribution in Texas, USA and Mexico. As a member of the tribe Tanymecini, it belongs to a group of weevils characterized by elongated rostra and typically associated with herbaceous vegetation.
Isodrusus
Isodrusus is a genus of weevils (family Curculionidae) in the subfamily Entiminae, described by Sharp in 1911. It belongs to the tribe Tanymecini, a group of broad-nosed weevils characterized by their relatively short rostrums. The genus is poorly documented in public sources, with no observations recorded on iNaturalist and no species-level information readily available. Its taxonomic placement within Tanymecini suggests morphological affinities with other genera in this tribe, which are primarily herbivorous.
Isodrusus debilis
Isodrusus debilis is a species of weevil in the family Curculionidae, described by David Sharp in 1911. The genus Isodrusus belongs to the tribe Tanymecini within the subfamily Entiminae, a group of broad-nosed weevils. Very little is known about the biology or ecology of this species. It appears to be native to Guatemala based on available distribution records.
Minyomerus griseus
Minyomerus griseus is a species of weevil in the family Curculionidae, subfamily Entiminae, described by Sleeper in 1960. It belongs to the tribe Tanymecini, a group of broad-nosed weevils. The species epithet "griseus" refers to its gray coloration. Distribution records indicate presence in Presidio, though detailed biological information remains limited.
Pandeleteinus submetallicus
Metallic-green Juniper Weevil
Pandeleteinus submetallicus is a broad-nosed weevil in the family Curculionidae. It occurs in the southwestern United States and adjacent regions. The species is associated with juniper hosts. It was described by Schaffer in 1908.
Pandeleteius
broad-nosed weevils
Pandeleteius is a large genus of broad-nosed weevils (Curculionidae: Entiminae: Tanymecini) comprising over 150 described species distributed across the Americas. The genus was established by Schönherr in 1834 and has been extensively revised by Anne Howden, who described most species. Members occur from North America through Central America to South America, with some species groups characterized by distinctive irregular elytral striae and well-developed stylus on the female coxite.
