Cylindrocopturus is a genus of weevil in the tribe Zygopini.[1][2] It was initially described by Heller in 1895.[3] Although included in the Lechriopini by some early sources, it has been included in the Zygopini in all more recent works.[4] Species in Cylindrocopturus have an unmodified mesoventrite and do not have sclerolepidia.[4] Two Cylindrocopturus species, C. eatoni and C. furnissi, are considered pests.[5]
