The insects were found inside the flowers where larvae and adults feed, causing early abortion and, consequently, losses in production. Therefore, the first record of this species is made in the Brazilian Amazon. Researches related to damage level, population dynamics, prospecting for natural enemies, and control methods are strongly recommended since this nitidulid is an insect with high harmful potential to the passion fruit vine culture in the Amazon region.openAccessPrimeiro registroFirst recordPrimer registroCipó de maracujáAmazonia OccidentalSap beetlesConotelus luteicornisPassion fruit vineSenador Guiomard (AC)AcreAmazônia OcidentalWestern AmazonPraga de PlantaBesouroPassiflora EdulisNitidulidaeArtigo de periódico
