Ceutorhynchus chalybaeus is a relatively scarce little weevil and the name has been the subject of much confusion. Old British records for C. chalybaeus (e.g. by Joy) refer to other species (pectoralis, thomsoni etc.), but it looks as though old records for C. timidus refer at least in part to the true C. chalybaeus. There are only one or two confirmed Essex records for the true C. chalybaeus (P. Hammond, pers. comm.). References
