BioControl, 2004
A seed-feeding weevil, Melanterius ventralis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), has been introduced into South Africa to supplement a gall wasp,Trichilogaster acaciaelongifoliae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), in the biological control programme against an alien invasive tree, Acacia longifolia (Mimosaceae), from Australia. The gall wasp debilitates most of the

Biological Control, 2004
Abstract Several Australian Acacia species have become highly invasive in a number of ecologically sensitive areas of South Africa. Many have useful attributes that, to an extent, have hampered biocontrol efforts by restricting potential agents to those reducing seed production whilst not affecting vegetative growth.

Biological Control, 2019
Abstract Since the mid-1980s, five species of seed-destroying Melanterius weevils have been used in South Africa as biological control agents against invasive Australian Acacia trees. Recorded levels of seed-destruction by the weevils are highly variable.

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1992
AbstractA seed-feeding weevil, Melanterius servulus Pascoe, is considered suitable for release against the weed Paraserianthes lophantha. However, host specificity tests have indicated that M. servulus may also develop on the seeds of Acacia mearnsii (black wattle), which is both a weed and a crop plant in South Africa.

Melanterius costatus Pinzón-Navarro, Jennings & Oberprieler, 2017, sp. n.
2017The M. costatus group This group may be characterised by the presence of conspicuous, pale but more or less unicolorous scales on the elytra, which are distributed in irregular clusters or bands on the interstriae, and a normally placed uncus on the pro- and mesotibiae of the females.
