'''''Sympiezomias''''' is a genus of [[beetles]] belonging to the family [[Curculionidae]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Sympiezomias Faust, 1887 |url=https://www.gbif.org/species/1228126 |access-date=17 August 2021 |website=www.gbif.org |language=en}}</ref> Species are distributed throughout India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Malaysia, Thailand, China and Japan. Almost all species are very uniform in external structures which leads to misidentification.<ref>{{Cite web |title=A STUDY OF THE WEEVIL GENUS SYMPIEZOMIAS FAUST FROM CHINA |url=https://en.cnki.com.cn/Article_en/CJFDTotal-KCXB197702014.htm |access-date=16 August 2021 |website=PeKing Institute of Zoology, Academia Sinica}}</ref>
