Within the technology of cereal products, prevention and controlling the weevils, pests of stored cereals is a major problem. To solve the multiple practical aspects raised by the achieving of cereals stocks protection (especially wheat and corn) against granary weevil (Sitophilus granarius L.), the research aimed a complex study on the morphology...
Post-harvest losses for maize and beans are common storage challenges affecting Tanzania's smallholder and large-scale farmers' storage facilities. Consequently, this leads to a reduction of over 50% of harvested grain qualitatively and quantitively per year. Therefore, this experimental study was conducted at the entomological laboratory of the So...
The increase in wheat demand is governed by rapidly growing population and increased preference towards wheat and its subsequent products. Maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais) is a cosmopolitan insect and causes great damage to stored grains. Its affinity towards wheat is a growing concern. The experiment was performed in the Entomology laboratory of...

The Chinese species of the highland weevil genus Pachynotus is revised, including a single known species, P. lampoglobus Chao & Y.-Q. Chen, 1980, and the descriptions of two new species, P. pilosussp. nov. and P. arcuatussp. nov. All Chinese Pachynotus species occur in Xizang (Tibet), China, and a key to these species is presented. Additionally, the COI sequences of two species, P. lampoglobus and P. pilosussp. nov., are provided, with details of the genetic distance.
