Hybomorphus is a genus of weevil in the family Curculionidae.[3] There is just one species in the genus, the type species, Hybomorphus melanosomus,[3] the Lord Howe Island ground weevil.[1]
The genus and the type species were first described by William Wilson Saunders and Henri Jekel in 1855.[3][4]
The weevil is now presumed extinct, not having been seen since the late 19th century despite intensive collecting effort.[1][2]
