Curculio felinus Thunberg, 1813 View in CoL ( Fig. 4 View FIGURES 1–8 )

This is a broadnosed weevil of the tribe Cyphicerini , probably Myllocerus Schönherr or near (R. Borovec, personal information). The genus is known from southern Africa but not from the historical Dutch Cape Colony, so the provenance needs confirmation. One specimen.
