Distribution
It is known from Central America and South America. It has been recorded as far south as Bolivia and Peru.[2]
Description
It is similar to Pachygonidia hopfferi, but the forewing outer edge is rounded and the outer edge of the dark postmedian band is wavy or toothed.
Biology
There are probably multiple generations per year.
The larvae probably feed on Doliocarpus dentatus, Doliocarpus multiflorus and Tetracera hydrophila.
gollark: I guess you could have language "devices" not map exactly to real ones.
gollark: Also, I think it should be designed to still work with just one machine connected, so the honeycomb thing is maybe not ideal.
gollark: I don't like the idea of specific worker bees, I think they should all be programmable with simple code somehow.

gollark: Maybe give each bee (?) a simple limited stack or TIS-100-style language to define tasks.
