Dolma rice based filling. Egyptians call this main course mahshi (also spelled mashi or mashy). It is stuffed vine leaves but traditionally, cabbage is used in the winter and vine leaves are used in the summer. According to Anthony Khatchaturian, a member of the Armenian community in Kolkata, India, the Bengali dish "potoler dorma" (stuffed gourd) was adapted from meat-stuffed vine leaves. "Mülebbes dolma" is a historic recipe from the Ottoman era. "Halep dolması"—named for Aleppo—is a dish of eggplants stuffed with a meat and rice filling that is flavored with spices and either sour plum flavoring syrup or lemon juice.
Vine weevil Vine weevil Black vine weevil ("Otiorhynchus sulcatus") is an insect native to Europe but common in North America as well. It is a pest of many garden plants. The adult weevil is matte black with fused wing covers, and is unable to fly. It feeds at night on the outer edges of leaves, causing the leaves to have a notched margin. Broadleaved evergreen plants such as "Camellia", "Rhododendron", "Euonymus" and "Bergenia" are particularly prone to damage, although a wide range of different garden plants is susceptible to attack. Female weevils have the ability to reproduce parthenogenetically with fertilisation of eggs
