Cryptorhynchinae, from Ancient Greek κρυπτός (kruptós), meaning "hidden", and ῥύγχος (rhúnkos), meaning "snout", is a large subfamily of weevils (Curculionidae), with some 6000 species. They are found in most zoogeographic regions, although they are most diverse in the Neotropics, Australia, and Oceania.
