The Egyptian alfalfa weevil,Hypera brunneipennisBoheman, was observed causing damage to a wide range of leguminous and non-leguminous plants during the spring of 1973. We feel that this unusual feeding behavior on the non-leguminous species was the result of the weevils' search for moisture associated with above average temperatures, rather than an expansion of host range.Large aggregations ofH. brunneipennis, Hippodamia convergensGuérin-Méneville, and aCoccinellasp. were found aestivating together in several habitats suggesting that these 3 species share similar requirements for this particular stage in their life cycle.
