Based on examination of the type series, Scydmoraphes rothangensis Franz is transferred to Stenichnus Thomson, resulting in Stenichnus (s. str.) rothangensis (Franz) comb. n. Structural details of this intriguing Himalayan species are illustrated in detail and compared with those of allied genera, and a redescription is given.

BACKGROUND Using syntactic and semantic conventions of the taxonomic concept approach (Franz et al. 2015), we describe three newly recognized fossil broad-nosed weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae) preserved in Early Miocene amber (ca. 20.4-16.0 mya) from the Dominican Republic: Scelianoma compactasp. n. sec. Franz & Zhang (2017) (henceforth abbreviated as [FZ2017]), Tropirhinus palpe...
