Abstract
Actuality. Considering the fact that some representatives of weevils damage agricultural crops and forest plantations, while others are phytophages of wild plants and weeds, it is advisable to study their species composition and distribution in agrocenoses. Problem. Investigations of the species composition of weevils in the fields of the Odesa State Agricultural Research Station of the NAAS. Methods. Counting of weevils was carried out according to generally accepted methods. Selection of herpetobiont insects was carried out using Barber’s traps, hortobionts – mowing with an entomological net. Results. In 2022, 18 species of weevils were registered in the fields of winter pea and winter wheat of the Odesa State Agricultural Research Station of the IKOA of the NAAS, of which five were found that had not previously been noted in the Odesa region: Ethelcus denticulatus (Schrank, 1781), Stenocarus cardui (Herbst, 1784), Gymnetron rotundicolle (Gyllenhal, 1838), Hypera melancholica (Fabricius, 1792), Hypera viciae (Gyllenhal, 1813). New record of Alcidodes karelinii (Boheman,1844) is published after 12 years.
