Willis Stanley Blatchley, Charles William Leng. 1916. Rhynchophora or weevils of North Eastern America. Nature Publishing Co., Indianapolis, Indiana. 682 pp.

This work was begun by the senior author, W. S. Blatchley, as a continuation or supplement to his "Coleoptera or Beetles of Indiana,'' published in 1910. After about one-third of the manuscript had been completed the junior author. Chas. W. Leng, wrote that he had a similar work in progress on the Atlantic Coast species of Rhynchophora and proposed that the two works be combined and the geographical scope enlarged so as to include the United States and Canada east of the Mississippi River. After due consideration the arrangement of a joint authorship was agreed upon, the works as begun were merged, enlarged and mostly rewritten, and the book as issued is the result.

The superfamily Platystomoidea Pierce (1916) is composed of those weevils classed by LeConte and Horn and other authors under the family Anthribidae. In planning a more comprehensive classification of the Rhynchophora it has been found best to raise the old conceptions of families to a superfam
