Abstract - Confirmation of the specific value of Otiorhynchus (Cavernodes) pavesii Magrini, Magnano & Abbazzi, 2007 and description of two new taxa from Corsica of the same subgenus (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Entiminae) - The specific value of the Corsican Otiorhynchus (Cavernodes) pavesii Magrini, Magnano & Abbazzi, 2007 (doubted by OROUSSET, 2015) is confirmed: numerous illustrations and a comparison table show the main differences with respect to the related O. (C.) grenieri (Allard, 1869). Two new species are also described from the island: O. (C.) cesarebelloi n. sp. from Brando (N Corsica), and O. (C.) beppeosellai n. sp. from Bonifacio (S Corsica), easily distinguishable from each other, and the two species already known, O. (C.) grenieri (Allard, 1869) and O. (C.) pavesii Magrini et al., 2007. The four taxa are widely illustrated and described.
