Sphenophorus

***Sphenophorus*** er en artsrik slekt av biller i familien snutebiller (Curculionidae). 

## Utseende
Middelsstore, avlange, sylindriske, svarte snutebiller, ofte med tegninger av lyse skjell. Snuten er lang og tynn, lett krummet.

## Levevis
Disse artene lever på gress og halvgress.

## Skadedyr
Artene i slekten *Sphenophorus* gjør skade på mais. De er kjent som "billbugs" i Nord-Amerika.

## Utbredelse
Slekten er utbredt i alle verdensdeler bortsett fra Afrika sør for Sahara.

## Systematisk inndeling
Navnet *Sphenophorus* er konservert av den internasjonale kommisjonen for zoologisk nomenklatur (ICZN) og er dermed gjeldende selv om navnet *Calendra* Schellenberg, 1798 er eldre.
