Remarks
Lee and Cheng (2007)[1] were the first to record this species from Taiwan although it is an introduced species originally distributed from the Eastern United States to Texas (White 1993[2]). Species of the genus Solanum (Solanaceae) were reported as its host plants in the US. Adults and larvae were found feed on leaves of Solanum americanum Miller (Figs 49–50) in Taiwan. Solanum americanum is also an introduced species for Taiwan.
Distribution
Eastern United States to Texas, Taiwan.
