A lagarta de Cerconota achatina (Zeller) (Lepidoptera, Oecophoridae, Stenomatinae): biologia e ocorrência em plantas hospedeiras do gênero Byrsonima Rich (Malpighiaceae)

Caterpillars of Cerconota achatina (Zeller, 1855) feed on lhe leaves of Byrsonima Rich in cerrado (savanna) of Brasília (Distrito Federal). They build shelters by tying leaves together with silk and frass. Within the leaf shelters the caterpillars form a tube of silk in which they feed. develop and...
