	abstract = {The weevil genus Ita Tournier, 1878 is revised, its phylogeny inferred and its historical biogeography discussed. Its nomenclatural history is detailed and its taxonomic placement within the Curculionidae is examined; the genus is ascribed to the subfamily Curculioninae, tribe Itini. The type specimens of all the described names referable to this genus were examined and lectotypes designated. Ten new species are described. The synonymy Xeronoma Iablokov-Khnzorian, 1964 = Ita Tournier, 1878 syn. nov. is proposed. The natural history is detailed: all the species for which data are available live in halophytic habitats and are associated with the former family Chenopodiaceae. Inference on phylogeny and hypotheses on historical biogeography are proposed: the genus has probably differentiated not later than the upper Miocene along the south-eastern coasts of the Paratethys; a subsequent radiation occurred as a consequence of the tectonic evolution of the region and through events of dispersion and dispersal.},

	abstract = {The New World weevil fauna of the parasitic plant family Viscaceae is comprised of 24 species in eight genera representing four tribes of Curculioninae. Genera represented (numbers of species and tribal placement in parentheses) are as follows; Anthonomus (3), Smicraulax (3) and Cionomimus (9) (Anthonomini), Myrmex (1) (Otidocephalini), Hohonus (2) (Cryptorhynchini), and Cylindrocopturinus (4), Turcopus (1) and Coturpus (1) (Zygopini). Smicraulax arizonicus Sleeper and S. tuberculatus Dietz are reported from Mexico; S. piercei is recorded from Chiapas, Mexico. Three new species of Anthonomus, A. brachyrhinus, A. guerreroensis and A. phoradendrae are described from Mexico. Five new species of Cionomimus, C. burkei (Mexico), C. clarki (Venezuela), C. grossus (Mexico), C. obrieni (Mexico) and C. woodi (Mexico) are described. A key to species of adults of Cionomimus species is presented. Otidocephalus algerti Sleeper is considered a new junior synonym of Myrmex arizonicus (Schaeffer). Sternocoelus sturio Arrow is transferred to Hohonus as H. sturio (Arrow) n. comb. The genus Cylindrocopturinus Sleeper, and C. pictus (Schaeffer) and C. hainesi Hespenheide are redescribed and 2 new species of Cylindrocopturinus, C. catherineae and C. vanessae, are described from Mexico. Cylindrocopturinus hainesi is reported from Honduras. A key to species of adults of Cylindrocopturinus is presented. Turcopus new genus is proposed with one included species, T. viscivorus new species, described from Guatemala and Guerrero, Mexico. Coturpus new genus is proposed with one included species, C. arcuatus new species, described from Guerrero, Mexico. Phylogenetic relationships of most curculionid lineages associated with Viscaceae are inadequately resolved. Only for Myrmex arizonicus and Cylindrocopturinus-Coturpus-Turcopus are there sufficient data to weigh competing hypotheses about evolution of host plant associations.},
