In the present study, the grasstree-associated weevils of the genus <em>Paratranes</em> Zimmerman, 1994 are reviewed and two species are recognised: <em>P.&nbsp;monopticus</em> (Pascoe, 1870) and <em>P.&nbsp;zimmermani</em> sp.&nbsp;nov. A lectotype for <em>Tranes xanthorrhoeae</em> Lea, 1898, which was recently synonymised with <em>P.&nbsp;monopticus</em>, is herein designated, and the validity of this synonymy is confirmed. Descriptions and diagnoses of the species are supplemented with photographs of their habitus and salient structures as well as a map of their distributions.</p>}, number={1}, journal={European Journal of Taxonomy}, author={Hsiao, Yun and Oberprieler, Rolf G.}, year={2021}, month={Sep.}, pages={117–141} }
