Abstract

The rice weevil Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is an important and destructive pest of rice. Comes from the United States of America and remained confined to North America until 1976, when it was spread to Asia. In Europe, it was first detected in Italy in 2004, and in 2016 it was also observed in Greece. Throughout 2023, during the control of the rice fields in the Kochani region, Republic of North Macedonia, rice damages similar to that caused by the rice weevil were observed. The presence of the pest was established after a detailed examination. The identity of the pest was determined through the morphological characteristics of the larva and imago. Damages to the rice plants were both on the roots and the leaves. Further researches should be carried out to determine the prevalence of the pest, its abundance, the damage it causes and the protective measures need to be taken.
