Abstract

The monotypic weevil tribe Neosharpiini Hoffmann, 1956 is herein placed in the subfamily Baridinae. Elasmobaris capucinus Faust, 1881 is transferred to Neosharpia Hoffm., and is probably synonymous with Neosharpia artemisiae Hoffm. In addition to Neosharpia, the genus Eumycterus Schoenh. is placed in the Neosparpiini. E. albosquamulatus Boh. is recorded for the first time from Middle Asia, Iran, and Ethiopia. Baris alboguttata Bris. is designated as type species of Elasmobaris Reitt.
