As part of a monographic study of the weevil genus Laparocerus Schönherr, 1834, which is very diverse in Macaronesia, this paper proposes some changes to the systematics of the genus and describes a number of new taxa from the archipelago of Madeira. Combining the morphological data with the molecular data presented in a previous contribution, the subgenera Laparocerus and Atlantis are redefined and three new subgenera are described: Atlantodes n. subgen., Pseudatlantis n. subgen. and Wollastonius n. subgen. In addition, six new species from Madeira are described: L. madeirensis n. sp., L. hobbit n. sp., L. serrado n. sp., L. silvaticus n. sp., L. stuebeni n. sp. and L. prainha n. sp., as well as L. cryptus n. sp. from the Ponta de São Lourenço, Porto Santo and Deserta Grande. Akey to all known Laparocerus from the archipelago of Madeira is provided.
