Eudiagogini is a tribe of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae, subfamily Entiminae. These beetles are primarily found in the Americas, especially in tropical and subtropical regions such as Mexico and Central America, where they inhabit forests, scrublands, and agricultural areas. Like other weevils, they possess elbowed antennae that arise from the snout. Many species are flightless or weak fliers, relying instead on walking and camouflage to avoid predators.
