Abstract
The weevil Mythapion adesmiae, previously known from Chilean Patagonia (Aysén and Magallanes regions) and the province of Santa Cruz in Argentina, is recorded for the first time for the province of Río Negro, above the treeline, between 1744-1850 m a.s.l. on Cerro Challhuaco associated with Adesmia corymbosa, which is a new plant association. The known records suggest an extensive distribution along the Patagonian Andes of Chile and Argentina.
