Due to its appearance, the acorn weevil can be confused with a related species, the hazelnut weevil (Curculio nucum). They can be differentiated by their body size: the acorn weevil is slightly smaller, and by the size of the probe beam - in the hazelnut weevil it is twice as long as wide, while in the acorn weevil the length is three times the width. | | |
