Abstract
This paper presents a new distribution record for Rizal's jewel weevil - Pachyrhynchus rizali Schultze, 1934 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae: Pachyrhynchini). A single female specimen was collected at the Aurora Memorial National Park, Province of Aurora, Luzon Island, Philippines on 18 Jun 2023 - a day before the 162nd birth anniversary of the Philippine national hero, Dr. Jose P. Rizal, after whom the species was named. The specimen was identified based on morphological comparison with the types deposited at the Senckenberg Natural History Museum in Dresden, Germany. Further explorations must be conducted to study the biology, ecology, population, and distribution of P. rizali. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
