A revision of the New Zealand weevil genus Irenimus Pascoe, 1876 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae) Author Brown, Samuel D. J. text Zootaxa 2017 4263 1 1 42 journal article 33101 10.11646/zootaxa.4263.1.1 993d2ddb-2f1b-40a7-8e9e-caf65f5a5f04 1175-5326 572504 78E0852E-F66A-44E4-8798-E5187185C950 24. Chalepistes spermophilus ( Broun, 1895 ) new combination Catoptes spermophilus Broun, 1895 :405 (Synonymised with Irenimus compressus by Kuschel, 1969 :800 ) Catoptes subnitidus Broun, 1914 :206 (Synonymised with Irenimus compressus by Kuschel, 1969 :800 ) Catoptes curvatus Broun, 1914 :206 (Synonymised with Irenimus aequalis by Kuschel, 1969 :805 ) This species is removed from synonymy with the externally similar C. compressus on the basis of clear aedeagal characters and genetic differences. The apex of the penis in C. compressus is sagittate ( Kuschel, 1969: Figure 11 ), while the apex of the penis in C. spermophilus is broadly rounded.
