甘蔗象鼻虫,种类繁多,且以为害地上叶片的较常见。据报道,我国已知食叶象鼻虫8种以上,发生不十分严重,对甘蔗影响不大,但为害蔗根部的象鼻虫数量虽较少,其危害性却反比食叶性类大得多。我国已记载为害根部的象鼻虫有:蔗根象鼻虫Episomoides albinus Mats(台湾、 广西)、细平象(虫甲)Trochorhopalus humeralls Sugarcane weevils, a wide range, and to harm the leaves of the more common. It is reported that there are more than eight kinds of leaf weevils in China, which are not very serious and have little effect on sugarcane.

China has recorded the root cause weevils are: cane root weevils Episomoides albinus Mats (Taiwan, Guangxi), astringent (insect) Trochorhopalus humeralls
