Abstract

Anthonomus (s. str.) alni Kojima et Morimoto, 1994 and A. (s. str.) takahashii Kojima et Morimoto, 1994 are recorded for the first time for Russia. Anthonomus (Anthomorphus) lukjanovitschi Ter-Minasian, 1948 is recorded for the first time for Khabarovsk Territory, Kunashir I. and Japan (Hokkaido), and its differences from A. (Anthomorphus) phyllocola (Herbst, 1795) are discussed. Descriptions of the little-known species A. (s. str.) alni, A. (s. str.) latior Pic, 1902 and A. (s. str.) semenovi Ter-Minasian, 1948 are amended and their characters are discussed. For A. (Anthonomidius) dauricus Faust, 1891, A. (s. str.) sp. pr. maculatus Ter-Minasian, 1973, A. (s. str.) mali Kojima et Morimoto, 1994 and A. (Pterochalybs) subchalybaeus Reitter, 1915 additional finds are reported. Images of male and female genitalia of most of the discussed species are presented for the first time. A new replacement name A. (s. str.) waynei Zabaluev, nom. n. is proposed for a junior primary homonym A. (s. str.) reichardti Clark, 1992 (non A. (Pterochalybs) reichardti Ter-Minasian, 1948).
