Description
Argyrotaenia Stephens, 1852
Although numerous species of Argyrotaenia have been reared, and from a broad range of host families, hosts for most neotropical Argyroteania are unknown. Janzen and Hallwachs (2009) provide host records for several undetermined and/or undescribed species (about 10) from Costa Rica. A species identified by Razowski and Wojtusiak (2010) as Argyrotaenia nr. artocopa (Meyrick, 1932) was reared from Tibouchina lepidota (Bonpl.) Baillon (Melastomataceae) (n = 2) and Miconia dielsii Markgr. (Melastomataceae) (n = 1) in Ecuador.
