Abstract
One specimen of the coffee bean weevil, Araecerus fasciculatus (DeGeer), was found in the region of Sochi on the Black Sea Coast of Krasnodar Territory. In the recent decade this species, new to the Russian fauna, was repeatedly found in natural habitats of Kunashir Island. Araecerus fasciculatus is polyphagous and, in addition to causing harm to stored plant products, may also damage citrus and sunflower plantations. Examples of recent expansion of the ranges of other invaders in Europe are given.
