Abstract
Abstract Stenopelmus rufinasus, a North American weevil introduced to Europe along with the invasive aquatic fern Azolla filiculoides, has been recorded from Poland for the first time. Its locality is a natural oxbow lake of the River Odra in Wrocław, the only city in Poland where A. filiculoides has been repeatedly recorded over the last dozen years. The diagnostic characters of this weevil species, its biology, current distribution in Europe and its prospects in Poland are discussed.

The journal publishes original research papers and reviews from any entomological discipline. The Polish Journal of Entomology is sponsored by the Polish Entomological Society and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. It deals with all aspects of entomology and has no geographical limits. Four issues of the journal are published annually. It is covered by the Zoological Record, Entomological Abstracts, Biological Abstracts. Each article has its own DOI
