Hoplapoderini is a tribe of weevils of the subfamily Apoderinae. They are characterized by a strongly constricted head with a distinctively arched crown.[2] The head shape is common to both males and females. They are distributed from Japan to the Indomalayan archipelago, as well as throughout Madagascar and Africa. Their lower body tends to be characterized by spots, pustules, bumps, or spines. Spines are particularly ubiquitous in those species found in Madagascar.
