Distribution edit

It is mainly distributed in Africa, where it is known Côte d’Ivoire, the Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Réunion, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania.[4] It has also been recorded from Belgium, Spain, Portugal and the United Kingdom, which probably do not represent native occurrences of the species but rather unintended introductions along with imports of tomatoes and other Solanaceae, the species' host plants.[3][5][6]

Larval food plants edit

The larvae exclusively feed on the fruits of Solanaceae. Their recorded host plants are Solanum anguivi, Solanum incanum, Solanum linnaeanum, Solanum macrocarpon, Solanum melongena, Lycopersicon esculentum and Capsicum annuum.[7]
