The Gedonian ground weevil was a creature that resembled a rodent, and it originated from Tenoo, a planet covered in forests.
The animated series Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures on Disney+ and Disney Junior featured the Gedonian ground weevil for the first time in "The Young Jedi," which premiered alongside "Get Well Nubs," on May 4, 2023. These were the opening segments of the first episode and third episode, respectively, from the first season. The middle grade novel The High Republic: Escape from Valo, released in 2024, adjusted the capitalization of the species' name, a change later reinforced by the reference book Star Wars Encyclopedia: The Comprehensive Guide to the Star Wars Galaxy, also from 2024.
