Family CURCULIONIDAE snout beetles or weevils
J. McNamara
The family Curculionidae includes 609 species
and subspecies in Canada and Alaska. AII of them
are phytophagous. Most of the larvae live inside
the tissues of the host plant, but some feed externally
on the leaves. The adults feed on leaves,
pollen, flowers, developing fruit, and fungi, and
some burrow in wood; they do not necessarily feed
on plants preferred by the larvae. Many weevils are
host-specifrc and some are economic pests.
Kissinger (1964) wrote a key to the genera.
O'Brien and Wibmer (1982) published a checklist of
the North American species with supplements in
1984 and 1989, the latter under Wibmer and
O'Brien. The classification used here follows that
checklist.
