- Prostephanus truncatus, communément appelé le grand capucin du maïs, est une espèce d'insectes coléoptères de la famille des Bostrichidae, originaire d'Amérique centrale et du Mexique. Ce coléoptère, qui mesure au stade adulte environ 4 mm de long, est un ravageur du maïs en grains ou en épis, des cossettes de manioc séchées et d'autres denrées stockées. Il est particulièrement virulent dans divers pays d'Afrique subsaharienne, du fait de l'absence d'ennemis naturels. Un autre coléoptère, (Histeridae), originaire d'Amérique centrale, est un prédateur du grand capucin du maïs et a été utilisé dans des programmes de lutte biologique en Afrique (fr)
- Prostephanus truncatus is commonly referred to as larger grain bore (LGB) with reference to the related Rhyzopertha dominica, another insect, which is relatively smaller in length, hence is referred to as the lesser grain bore. P. truncatus is about 6 mm (0.24 in) long as compared to 3 mm (0.12 in) long in Rh. dominica. At optimum conditions of 80% relative humidity and 32 °C (90 °F), and available food, P. truncatus completes its lifecycle within 27 days. It is a serious pest of dried grains, especially maize and dried cassava in West Africa. This beetle is believed to have been introduced into West Africa through food aid from America. It reached Africa through Tanzania in the early 1970s. LGB attacks maize right from the field and continues in the store. It also feeds on wood, plastics, storage bags and cassava. LGB bores into the grain, and feeds, leaving an empty shell, while the weevil only feeds on the heart of the grain. LGB also lives in the granary (unmudded “nkhokwe”), especially in old maize granaries, and is ready to attack as soon as maize is placed into the store. LGB finds it difficult to enter dry maize.
