(A. St.-Hil.) Ravenna collected in the city of São Paulo. Oviposition occured in the &quot;paineira&quot; during the flowering period, between mid-December to May. In the same tree branch flowers were found in different stages of development, an event already reported by Donato (1991). Female weevils did not select a specific flower stage in which to oviposit, since weevil larvae of first instar were found in buds and open flowers as well. With the help of the rostrum, females drilled a hole into the apical region of the staminodium of buds of nonaborted flowers (

The bodies of the first and second instar larvae were covered by a sticky, mucilaginous substance. According to Donato (1991), the inner layer of epidermis that delimits the central cavity walls has groups of mucilaginous ducts. We observed that, as the larva burrows, the ducts are cut off and the mucilage is released. Part of the mucilage is eventually ingested during larval feeding, part remains free in the cavity and part gets stuck on the larval integument.</paragraph>
