Description:
3/8" long, Egg-shaped, constricted between prothorax and elytra. Brown covered with pale brown hairlike scales and sometimes small brown or yellow spots. Beak slender; female's longer than body and almost straight near head, male's shorter than body and uniformally curved. 2nd antennal segment is at least as long as 3rd.

Habitat:
Deciduous forest.

Range:
Eastern United States west to Arizona.

Food:
Acorns of black, red and white oaks.

Life Cycle:
Female bores small circular hole through acorns, lays one egg or more in hole and seals opening with a fecal pellet that looks like a white dot on the outside of a dry acorn. Larvae feed on pupate inside. Adults are active June-August. 1 generation per year, corresponding to acorn crop.

This weevil can be easily recognized by its long beak. The Eastern Black Oak Acorn Weevil (Curculio baculi), 1/4", is graish to reddish brown with short pale gray scales; its curved beak is 3/5 the body length in females or 1/2 body length in male. It is found from New York to Alabama, northwest to Nebraska.
