Larinus sibiricus is a species of true weevil found in Eastern Europe and the Middle East.[1]
The weevil feeds on Xeranthemum annuum (Asteraceae).[1] Females lay eggs on the flowerheads, and larvae undergo development inside the flower heads. The species' larvae are parasitized by Bracon urinator (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)[1] and Zeuxia cinerea (Diptera: Tachinidae).[2]
