Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, the red palm weevil, is a destructive pest of palm trees. The larvae bore into the trunk, causing significant damage and potentially killing the tree. R. ferrugineus is known for its ability to spread quickly and cause severe economic losses in palm cultivation. Management practices include monitoring for signs of infestation, using traps, and applying insecticides to control populations and protect palm trees.
