The secondary structures of the ITS1 region of C.sordidus and O.longicollis have ten and five helices respectively, emerging from a central core. Two and five helices emerge from a central core in the ITS2 secondary structures of C.sordidus and O.longicollis respectively, and do not conform to the `paneukaryotic' four domain model. The ITS2 sequences of these two weevils share three regions with maximum sequence identity. Of these, two are present at the 5' and 3' end and share structural similarity, suggesting their possible role in the processing of the rRNA. This is the first report of the secondary structure of the ITS region in family Curculionidae which can serve as a valuable resource for homology modelling and phylogenetic studies.&lt;/p&gt;
