Rhynchophorus larval soundsheadline bar Rhynchophorus Palm Weevil Sounds Recordings of Rhynchophorus Larval Sounds 
 Rhynchophorus ferrugineus is an important pest of palm trees in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Southern Europe, and has been found recently in the Southern Caribbean region. R. cruentatus is a pest of ornamental palms in Florida. The larvae of these pests feed undetected inside the tree trunk, but they can be detected using acoustic technology, which enables pest managers to identify and treat infested trees. For reference information see Mankin et al. (2008)   [231 kB], Mankin et al. 2011 [7144 kB]., and Roda et al. (2011)   [798  kB].
