The small Neotropical weevil genus Anthobaris Hustache, 1951 is studied for the first time since its description. Anthobaris affabra of authors [=Baridius affaber Boheman, 1844] is distinguished from the true A. affabra [=Centrinus affaber Boheman, 1844] and removed from the genus. Three species are recognized: the type species A. rugosicollis Hustache, 1951 from Argentina and Bolivia, A. affabra (Boheman, 1844) new combination from Brazil, and A. comptior Prena new species from Costa Rica. Anthobaris denticulata Hustache, 1951 is a junior subjective synonym of A. affabra (new synonymy). Collections of A. rugosicollis from Santa Cruz Department, Bolivia suggest that these weevils might be associated with the sunflower genus Smallanthus (Compositae).
小的新热带象鼻虫属 Anthobaris Hustache, 1951 自其描述以来首次被研究。作者的 Anthobaris affabra [=Baridius affaber Boheman, 1844] 与真正的 A. affabra [=Centrinus affaber Boheman, 1844] 不同,并从属中移除。识别出三个物种:模式种 A. rugosicollis Hustache, 1951 来自阿根廷和玻利维亚,A. affabra (Boheman, 1844) 新组合来自巴西,以及 A. comptior Prena 新物种来自哥斯达黎加。Anthobaris denticulata Hustache, 1951 是 A. affabra (新同物异名) 的次同物异名。来自玻利维亚圣克鲁斯省的 A. rugosicollis 收藏表明这些象鼻虫可能与向日葵属 Smallanthus(菊科)有关。
