  • Title: First host plant record for Teriocolias zelia andina Forbes (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) and evidence for local specialization.
    Author: Vargas HA.
    Journal: Neotrop Entomol; 2012 Dec; 41(6):524-5. PubMed ID: 23949680.
    Abstract:
    The shrub Senna birostris var. arequipensis (Fabaceae) is recorded as the first host plant for the little known butterfly Teriocolias zelia andina Forbes (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) in the occidental slopes of the Andes, northernmost Chile. Observations on egg-laying and larva-feeding behavior suggest that this butterfly is host specific.
