Curculionidae of Guam Author Zimmerman, Elwood C. Entomologist Bernice P. Bishop Museum text 1942 1942-06-01 Bernice P. Bishop Museum Honolulu, Hawaii Insects of Guam I 73 146 book chapter http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5159964 d0309e8b-3179-4162-946c-08cef1c82013 5159964 Genus VITICIS Lea, 1930 Heretofore, this genus has been known only from the genotype, Viticis bidentatus Lea (Zimmerman, B. P. Bishop Mus., 0cc. Papers 14(15): 306- 308, 1939) from Viti Levu, Fiji . It is easily recognized by its 6-segmented antennal funicle and its 3-segmented tarsi (the claw segment is wanting and the third segment is rounded and solid distally) together with its separated coxae and dentate femora. Although the distribution of the genus now seems quite discontinuous, numerous new species undoubtedly will be described from various intervening islands. Since the writing of these notes, I have seen a new species from Amboina.
