	abstract = {The flightless weevils Naupactus leucoloma and Naupactu xanthographus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Naupactini), which are native to and partially co-distributed in South America, apparently have asexual and bisexual reproductive modes, respectively. We used two different molecular markers to elucidate the effects of these reproductive modes on the colonization ability and genetic variability of both species. First, we investigated the occurrence of clonal reproduction in the putative parthenogenetic species (i.e. significant bias in sex ratio) and second, whether parthenogenesis was associated with higher colonization ability and low levels of genetic variability in marginal environments compared with those of the bisexual species. We assessed the central and marginal areas of distribution of these species with ecological niche modeling that includes environmental variables and with landscape interpolation of molecular variability. Our results support the idea that parthenogenetic species are more successful than bisexual ones in colonizing new environments. N. leucoloma is most probably apomictic, and would have recently experienced significant population growth concomitant with an important geographic range expansion to distant areas with moderately suitable environmental conditions. On the other hand, the populations of the bisexual species, N. xanthographus, seem to have maintained fairly constant sizes, expanding its geographic distribution to locations close to the proposed ancestral area.},

	abstract = {The genus Lachnopus Schoenherr (Coleoptera : Curculionidae : Entiminae : Geonemini Gistel), with 66 species described to date, is the largest and most widespread entimine weevil genus in the Caribbean region. The monophyly and internal phylogenetic composition of Lachnopus are tested, using a cladistic analysis of 61 adult morphological characters of 31 ingroup species and five outgroup taxa representing the genera Diaprepes Schoenherr, Exophthalmus Schoenherr, Pachnaeus Schoenherr (all Eustylini), Ischionoplus Chevrolat (Geonemini) and Apodrosus Marshall (Polydrusini). The analysis produced two most parsimonious cladograms with a length of 167 steps, a consistency index of 36 and a retention index of 73. According to the strict consensus and preferred character state optimisations, the examined species of Lachnopus do not form a monophyletic entity, even though most species are placed in a major L. coffeae{\textendash}L. guerinii ingroup clade, which stands in sister relationship to Ischionoplus. This major clade is constituted by at least three well-recognisable subgroups, each associated with a particular geographic range in the Caribbean region: (1) a widely distributed L. coffeae{\textendash}L. lineicollis {\textquoteleft}grade{\textquoteright}; (2) the Hispaniolan L. proteus{\textendash}L. mercator clade; (3) and the L. hispidus{\textendash}L. guerinii clade with species from Cuba, Florida and Jamaica. This study provides a sound phylogenetic basis for future revisions of Lachnopus and related geonemine genera.},
