Xyleborus solidus Eichhoff, 1868 , Berl.Ent.Z. 12: 151. Xylosandrus solidus (Eichhoff) : Wood & Bright, 1992, Gt Basin Nat.Mem. 13:

800.

Based on the subcontiguous procoxae and and the presence of a coarse median pair of asperities on the produced anterior margin of the pronotum, this species is here transferred to Cnestus . It has a similar distribution to C.pseudosolidus in eastern Australia (Wood and Bright 1992). Records from New Zealand appear to refer to C.pseudosolidus ( Brockerhoff et al. 2003) .
