Abstract
The larva and pupa of the saproxylic Euryommatus mariae Roger, 1857, the weevil species extremely rare in Europe, are described from Poland. It was reared from galleries in dead branches of a fallen spruce Picea abies. The larval morphology is compared with available larval descriptions of other genera of the supertribe Conoderitae, namely, the Palaearctic Coryssomerus, and the Nearctic Cylindrocopturus and Eulechriopus. The specific characters of the male and female postabdomen are described and illustrated, expressing the peculiar structure of endophallus and spermathecal duct, not seen in any other weevil species. A hypothesis regarding the mechanics of mating in this species is proposed. Euryommatus mariae is recorded for the first time to occur in China.
