| Abstract | A checklist of 22 species of the weevil family Brentidae (subfamilies Cyladinae, Brentinae, Cyphagoginae, Trachelizinae) recorded from Fiji is given, with notes on distribution, biology, and faunal composition. Aneorhachis fijiana n. sp. is described by A. Mantilleri. An illustrated key to the 22 species is provided. Eubactrus metallicollis Fairmaire is transferred to the genus Miolispa Pascoe, with Miolispa fijiana Kleine as a new synonym. Cerobates angustipennis Senna, Cerobates laevipennis Senna, and Ithystenus muelleri Kleine are removed from the Fiji faunal list. |
