The vast majority of documented host plants come from the work of Janzen and Hallwachs (2009) , who provide nearly 100 records of adults reared from larvae collected in Area de Conservación in northwestern Costa Rica . Orthocomotis nitida Clarke, 1956 has been reared from the leaves of Nectandra martinicensis Mez , N. hihua (Ruiz and Pav.) Rohwer , N. umbrosa (Kunth) Mez , Ocotea insularis (Meisn.) Mez , O. atirrensis Mez and Donn. Sm. , O. cernua (Nees) Mez , O. floribunda (Sw.) Mez , O. puberula (Rich.) Nees , O. tenera Mez and Donn. Sm. , O. whitei Woodson , Persea americana Mill. , P. schiedeana Nees , and Licaria brenesii W. Burger (all Lauraceae ), with single records from Cupania juglandifolia A. Rich. (Sapindaceae) and Stryphnodendron microstachyum Poepp. (Fabaceae) . Orthocomotis herbaria (Busck, 1920) has been reared only from Nectandra hihua (Ruiz and Pav.) Rohwer (Lauraceae) ( Brown 2003 ). In Ecuador , three species of Orthocomotis were reared: O. marmorobrunnea Razowski and Wojtusiak, 2006 on Nectandra sp. ( Lauraceae ) (n = 1); O. parandina Razowski and Wojtusiak, 2010 on Chusquea scandens Kunth (Poaceae) (n = 1), Ilex yurumanguinis Cuatrec. (Aquifoliaceae) (n = 1), Nectandra cissiflora (Lauraceae) (n = 1), and an unidentified host (n = 1); and O. yanayacu Razowski and Wojtusiak, 2010 , described from the reared material from Yanayacu, on Ocotea sp. 3 ( Lauraceae ) (n = 1) and Nectandra cissiflora (Lauraceae) (n = 1).
