weevil    音标拼音: [w'ivəl]
n. 象鼻虫之类

象鼻虫之类

weevil
n 1: any of several families of mostly small beetles that feed
on plants and plant products; especially snout beetles and
seed beetles

Weevil \Wee"vil\, n. [OE. wivel, wevil, AS. wifel, wibil; akin
to OD. wevel, OHG. wibil, wibel, G. wiebel, wibel, and
probably to Lith. vabalas beetle, and E. weave. See {Weave}.]
(Zool.)
Any one of numerous species of snout beetles, or
Rhynchophora, in which the head is elongated and usually
curved downward. Many of the species are very injurious to
cultivated plants. The larvae of some of the species live in
nuts, fruit, and grain by eating out the interior, as the
plum weevil, or curculio, the nut weevils, and the grain
weevil (see under {Plum}, {Nut}, and {Grain}). The larvae of
other species bore under the bark and into the pith of trees
and various other plants, as the pine weevils (see under
{Pine}). See also {Pea weevil}, {Rice weevil}, {Seed weevil},
under {Pea}, {Rice}, and {Seed}.
[1913 Webster]
