Xanthaciura insecta (Loew) Remarks. The examined series from Venezuela has the subbasal hyaline mark in cell cu 1 more elongate than in other specimens examined. Biology. Ten species, including seven species of Bidens, have been previously reported as host plants for X. insecta. The records below include a new host record from Cosmos sulphureus Cav. and data documenting the records of Bidens squarrosa H.B.K. and Dahlia coccinea Cav. reported by Foote et al. (1993). Bidens, Cosmos, and Dahlia are closely related genera, all belonging to the tribe Coreopsideae of the Asteraceae. The larvae develop in the flowerheads. Material examined.
