Listed in GBIF

Description

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Haran, Julien, Zelvelder, Benjamin, Boupoya, Clay Archange, Couvreur, Thomas L. P., Niangadouma, Raoul, Benoit, Laure, Kergoat, Gael J., Buatois, Bruno, Dufäy, Mathilde, Kojima, Hiroaki, Allio, Rémi (2026): New species of Endaeus Schoenherr, 1826 (Curculionidae: Curculioninae: Ochyromerini) associated with Annonaceae and Clusiaceae.

European Journal of Taxonomy 1039: 165-198, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2026.1039.3185, URL: europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/3185/14151 Abstract. Representatives of the weevil tribe Ochyromerini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Curculioninae) have been increasingly reported as specialized pollinators of Annonaceae Juss., with some species in the genus Endaeus Schoenherr, 1826 engaging in brood-site pollination with their host.

Recent investigations into the poorly documented life history of these pollinators have led to the discovery of new species in the genus Endaeus and provided details of their life histories. The following species are herein described: E. canangae Haran sp. nov. from Southeast Asia, associated with Cananga odorata (Lam.) Hook.f. & Thomson (Annonaceae); E. lenticulatus Haran sp. nov. from Central Africa, associated with Uvariodendron molundense (Diels) R.E.Fr.

(Annonaceae); E. xylopiae Haran & Zelvelder sp. nov., E. jaculifer Haran & Zelvelder sp. nov. and E. convexiculus Haran & Zelvelder sp. nov. from Central Africa, associated with Xylopia aethiopica (Dunal) A.Rich. (Annonaceae) and E. staminicola Haran sp. nov. also from Central Africa, associated with Allanblackia floribunda Oliv. (Clusiaceae Lindl.).

Pictures of habitus and terminalia of adults, molecular and morphological diagnostic tools along with life history data are provided for each species. These new associations are discussed in light of the general patterns of specialized brood-site pollination mutualism between plants and weevils.
