Paleontological Journal. 53, 7, 63-85. doi:10.1134/S0031030119070049.


Abstract. Several new tribes, genera and species of Curculionoidea are described from the Lowermost Eocene Oise amber (France), viz., the new tribes Oiserhinini trib. nov. (type genus: Oiserhinus gen. nov.) (in Anthribidae: Anthribinae), Palaeotanaini trib. nov. (type genus: Palaeotanaos Kirejtshuk, Legalov et Nel, 2015) (in Brentidae: Apioninae), Sciabregmini trib. nov. (type genus: Sciabregma Scudder 1893) (in Curculionidae: Molytinae); the new genera Oiserhinus gen. nov. (type species: Oiserhinus insolitus sp. nov.), Oisecalles gen. nov. (type species: Oisecalles latosquamosus sp. nov.) in Cryptorhynchini: Cryptorhynchina), Rhinoporkus gen. nov. (type species: Rhinoporkus gratiosus sp. nov.) (in Dryophthorinae: Dryophthorini), Jantarhinus gen. nov. (type species: Jantarhinus compressus sp. nov.) (in Conoderinae: Conoderini), Jantaronosik gen. nov. (type species: Jantaronosik nebulosus sp. nov.) (in Curculioninae: Acalyptini), Tolstonosik gen. nov. (type species: Tolstonosik oisensis sp. nov.) (in Entiminae: Eudiagogini); and the new species Oiserhinus insolitus sp. nov., Sciabregma squamosa sp. nov., Oisecalles latosquamosus sp. nov., Rhinoporkus gratiosus sp. nov., Jantarhinus compressus sp. nov., Jantaronosik nebulosus sp. nov., and Tolstonosik oisensis sp. nov. The generic name Protoceletes Rheinheimer, 2007, syn. nov. is synonymized under Electrotribus Hustache, 1942. New combinations of names (Electrotribus wolfschwenningerae (Rheinheimer, 2007), comb. nov. and E. hirtus (Nazarenko and Perkovsky, 2016), comb. nov.) are established. Synopsis of the weevil findings from described groups are presented.
