- Biogeography of weevils (Curculionidae: Curculionoidea: Coleoptera) associated with fig trees (Ficus: Moraceae), BP.DR
Abstract
Despite the scattered data from literature about the association between weevils and fig trees, there are strong evidences that these beetles are specialized in using figs for feeding and reproduction. However, little is known about the biology, distribution and evolution of these weevils. The present study aims to known which species of Curculionidae beetles are associated with Ficus i...
- Biogeography of weevils (Curculionidae: Coleoptera) associated with figs (Ficus: Moraceae), BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Insects and flowering plants are undoubtedly the most diverse group of terrestrial organisms. They interact mostly through pollination and herbivory which in a long term evolution promoted the diversification of many groups of insects. There is a plethora of examples of broad irradiations of groups of insects on classes of plants, and among these one of the most remarkable are the fig-w...
