Henri Jekel
Henri Jekel (September 21, 1816, Paris - August 4, 1891) was a French coleopterist. Life and work Jekel ran a natural history items and books store in Paris. In 1849 he wrote a revision of the work ''Genera et species Curculionidarum'' by the Swedish entomologist Carl Johan Schönherr. From 1854 to 1859 he self-published the three-volume work ''Fabricia entomologica''. In the following years he wrote a large number of specialist articles for various journals of entomological societies, including the first description of the giraffe neck beetle from Madagascar in 1860. In total, Jekel described over 550 taxa, 367 of which are still valid today. These include genera and species from the beetle families Anthribidae, Attelabidae, Curculionidae and Geotrupidae. Genera described are Lasiorhynchites, Conothorax, Chelotrupes, Balanobius, Donus, Eudmetus, Elytroxys and Entomops. In 1855 he published the first part of ''Insecta Saundersiana or characters of undescribed insects i ...

Curculionidae Genera
The Curculionidae are a family of weevils, commonly called snout beetles or true weevils. They are one of the largest animal families, with 6,800 genera and 83,000 species described worldwide. They are the sister group to the family Brentidae. They include the bark beetles as the subfamily Scolytinae, which are modified in shape in accordance with their wood-boring lifestyle. They do not much resemble other weevils, so they were traditionally considered a distinct family, Scolytidae. The family also includes the ambrosia beetles, of which the present-day subfamily Platypodinae was formerly considered the distinct family Platypodidae. Description Adult Curculionidae can be recognised by the well-developed, downwards-curved snout ( rostrum) possessed by many species, though the rostrum is sometimes short (e.g. Entiminae). They have elbowed antennae that end in clubs, and the first antennal segment often fits into a groove in the side of the rostrum. The body tends to be robust, ...
