Rogers, C.W., W.E. Clark, and H.R. Burke. 1975. Bionomics of Sibinia sulcatula (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) on mesquite in Texas. Southwestern Naturalist 20: 303—314.

Abstract:

The life history, taxonomy and distribution of Sibinia sulcatula Casey are discussed. Oviposition is in flower buds of Prosopis glandulosa var. glandulosa Torr. Larval stages are completed within the bud and the mature larva leaves the bud to pupate. Larval and pupal stages are described and illustrated for the first time.
