108. Gymnandrosoma aurantianum Lima, 1927 complex (Fig. 48).
This widespread species of the New World tropics was reported from Honduras by Adamski & Brown (2001) based on a specimen in the collection of Vitor Becker. The larvae of G. aurantianum attack a wide range of fruit in many families, notably Citrus ( Rutaceae), Theobroma ( Sterculiaceae), Annona ( Annonaceae), Psidium ( Myrtaceae), and Byrsonima ( Malpighiaceae) (Adamski & Brown 2001). This may be a complex of species based on DNA barcodes (JWB, unpublished).
