dc.description.abstract	Nine species of the genus Blosyrus (Schoenherr, 1826) (Curculionidae: Entiminae) occurring in India, Sri Lanka and Myanmar are revised. The earlier known seven species are redescribed, while two new species B. marshalli sp. nov. and B. thompsoni sp. nov., are described. The subspecies spongifer upgraded to species status upon phenotypic variations, is supported by its geographical distribution. The genus description is updated and a key to the species provided.	en_US
