The weevil genera Acalles, Ruteria and Kyklioacalles in the Netherlands (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Species of the weevil genera Acalles, Ruteria and Kyklioacalles are not frequently taken by collectors as they are cryptic in habit and coloration. As a consequence the distribution of these species is poorly known. There has also been some confusion about the status of some species. Recently, significant revisionary work has been done by several authors. Inspired by their work, I reviewed the Dutch material from institutional and private collections. Furthermore, a number of field trips have been made to collect additional material. Until now, the Dutch list contained five species. The present survey has revealed that two species have to be removed from the check list and three species have to be added. In this contribution the new list is presented and all Dutch species are discussed. A simplified key to the Dutch species is provided.
