1、Head In the Curculionoidea the head is more or less prolonged forward into a snout;the mouthparts are reduced in size and are located at the tip of the snout,and the antennae arise on the sides of it The families in the Curculionoidea are sometimes placed in a separate suborder,the Rhynchophora

3、Thorax The pronotum and scutellum are normally the only thoracic areas visible from above. A few beetles have notopleural sutures, which separate the pronotum from the propleura The prosternum often has a process or lobe extending backward between the front coxae;sometimes this process is spinelike
