Th e clonal structure of populations of the weevil Eusomus ovulum Germar, 1824 (Coleoptera, Curculionidae) from several regions of Ukraine was analyzed. Th e signifi cant diff erentiation between populations from dif-ferent region was demonstrated. Th e hypothesis of multiple origins of the hybrid form E. ovulum from several parental species is proposed.
