in both adult and larval stages. During two consecutive years of observation adult weevils were found exclusively from November to February, overlapping the flowering period of the host plant species. Adult weevils fed mostly on flower buds (Fig. 17). They usually pierced receptacles chewing soft tissues of the ovaries, but also on the tips of closed buds feeding on pollen grains and stamens. Weevils also fed on soft tissues in leaf axils (Fig. 18). In January and February females were observed chewing tiny roles in the haustorial root of the host plant (Fig. 19) where they oviposited (Fig. 20). The larva is rhizophagous, developing as a borer inside the haustorium of the host plants (Fig.21). Larvae were found from March to September, during the dry season. Pupae were found exclusively inside haustorial roots in October, suggesting that the metamorphosis ends just before the beginning of the rainy season. Adults emerged from mistletoes in

, coinciding with the beginning of the host plant blooming period. While moving, weevils perform unusual jerking movements of the legs and a stereotypical leg scrubbing behavior mimicking the behavior of flesh-flies. Disturbed weevils usually hide on the underside of leaves or shoots moving in the opposite direction of the threat stimuli. More effective capture attempts usually induced weevils to drop off of the host plants. Hand-captured individuals performed thanatosis (Fig. 22). The new species is diurnal and at night individuals were observed resting completely motionless on leaves. Adult weevils walk throughout the whole area of the host plant, rarely leaving mistletoes by flight. While chewing, weevils inserted their long rostrum in host tissues, and this feeding behavior made it difficult for them to drop off or move away quickly, probably making them more susceptible to attacks of natural enemies.
