Abstract - New records of Coleoptera Curculionoidea for the Island of Lampedusa - During one week of entomological research on the Island of Lampedusa, 29 species of Curculionoidea were collected, 11 of which new to the island, and also to the other Pelagian islands. Three of them belong to the family Apionidae, and eight to the family Curculionidae. Therefore, the number of Curculionoidea known for Lampedusa is now 66, from 55, with an increase of 20%. One of these species, Allomalia setulosa (Tournier, 1868), is also new to Italy.
