“…The reason of absence of M. punctumalbum in the present study might be due to an insufficient investigation of the host plant in May when its mature individuals are found. M. punctumalbum, which has a wide distribution in the western Palearctic, is a species expected to be recorded from the study area in the future (Gültekin & Korotyaev, 2012).…”

In the present study, 4 new species for Ceutorhynchinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) fauna of Turkish Thrace Region and additional records belonging to 20 species known from the region are reported. These records based on material collected during 2011-2012 in Edirne province. A list of species belonging to 11 genera of 3 tribes of the subfamily Ceutorhynchinae is provided, and a list of collecting localities is also presented. Furthermore, remarks on distribution, taxonomy and pest of some species are also given on the present data related to them.

“…Material for the study of M. schoenherri was collected from the seeds of I. iberica in Turkey. Detailed biology of both species has previously been published by Gültekin and Korotyaev (). Some larvae obtained from the seeds of both species were preserved in a 75% solution of alcohol.…”

“…The development of all species is strictly associated with the plant genus Iris L. (Iridaceae). The biology of only two species has recently been well described: Mononychus punctumalbum (Herbst, 1784) and Mononychus schoenherri Kolenati, 1859 (Gültekin & Korotyaev, 2012). The species M. punctumalbum is distributed in the western Palaearctic region (Colonnelli, 2004), and its development is known on more than 10 Iris species (Gültekin & Korotyaev, 2012).…”

Scherf (1964) described its larva, but this description is very short and of no use for comparison with other immature stages.…”

“…This weevil has recently been recognized as monophagous on Iris iberica Georg Franz Hoffmann, and its development has strongly affected this Iris species. However, one capsule has normally been attacked by 5 or 6 larvae of M. schoenherri, which consumed all seeds inside during their development (Gültekin & Korotyaev, 2012). In contrast, one capsule attacked by M. punctumalbum contained only two or three larvae (Gültekin & Korotyaev, 2012), which were unable to consume all the seeds in one capsule.…”

Last larval instars and pupae of Mononychus punctumalbum (Herbst, 1784) and Mononychus schoenherri Kolenati, 1859 (Curculionidae, Ceutorhynchinae) are described in detail for the first time. No immatures of other species of this genus had previously been described. The immatures of Mononychus were compared with available data on immatures of all genera in the subfamily Ceutorhynchinae. Both the larvae and pupae of the two Mononychus species are very distinctive, having distinct characters from other genera in the subfamily Ceutorhynchinae. New bionomic data for M. punctumalbum concerning its host preferences for Iris species in central Europe can be used to verify literature data indicating the important role of the iris weevil in the dramatic decline in the plant's abundance in natural habitats as well as in gardens and other anthropogenic associations.
