Isodacrys Brevirostre
''Isodacrys'' is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are 20 described species in ''Isodacrys'', ranging from the southern United States of America to Honduras. Natural history ''Isodacrys'' species are distributed from south of the United States of America to Honduras, mainly across Mexican and Central American mountain ranges of ~1500–3100 meters above sea level; some species also occur in lowlands. The adults of ''Isodacrys'' have been found in ''Quercus'', ''Pinus'' and in other plants of different families as Asteraceae, Fabaceae, Rhamnaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Betulaceae, Malvaceae, and Solanaceae. Some adults have been collected from leaf litter and under rocks. Immature stages remain unknown. Species These 13 species belong to the genus ''Isodacrys'': * ''Isodacrys apicale'' Howden, 1961 * '' Isodacrys brevirostre'' Howden, 1961 * '' Isodacrys buchanani'' Howden, 1961 * '' Isodacrys burkei'' Howden, 1961 * '' Isodacrys crispum'' Howden, ...

Broad-nosed Weevil
The Entiminae are a large subfamily in the weevil family Curculionidae, containing most of the short-nosed weevils, including such genera as ''Entimus'', ''Otiorhynchus'', ''Phyllobius'', ''Sitona'', and '' Pachyrrhynchus''. In comparison with their stunning diversity, only a few of these weevils are notorious pests of major economic importance. Entimines are commonly encountered in the field, including urban environments, and abundant in entomological collections. Diversity There are over 12000 described species worldwide, distributed in over 1370 genera, nearly 14000 by more recent counts. Most tribes are represented in only one biogeographic region of the world. The current classification within the subfamily has been recognized as artificial rather than reflecting natural groups. General morphology Besides the shape of their broad and short rostrum, most entimines are easily recognized by the presence of a mandibular scar that appears when a deciduous process falls off ...

Curculionidae
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 (anatomy), rostrum) possessed by many species, though the rostrum is sometimes short (e.g. Entiminae). They have elbowed Antenna (biology), antennae that end in clubs, and the first antennal segment often fits into a groove in the side of the ros ...
