They presented host records for 11 of the species, and in cases where one than one rearing was involved, polyphagy seems to be the norm, with a total of 27 plant families documented as hosts for one or more species of Amorbia . The continued efforts of Janzen and Hallwachs (2009) in Costa Rica have added many new hosts but revealed no conspicuous patterns other than polyphagy. During the study in Ecuador , two species of Amorbia were reared. Amorbia cacao Phillips and Powell, 2007 , described from specimens from Costa Rica and Guatemala , was reported from Yanayacu by Razowski and Wojtusiak (2010) . In Costa Rica , this species has been reared from Asteraceae , Clusiaceae , Fabaceae , Flacourtiaceae , Juglandaceae , Lauraceae , Rosaceae , and Sabiaceae ( Phillips-Rodriguez and Powell 2007 ) . In Ecuador it was reared once from Rubus sp. ( Rosaceae ). Amorbia colubrana Phillips and Powell, 2007 was reported from Colombia , Ecuador , and Peru , above about 2000 m elevation ( Phillips-Rodriguez and Powell 2007 ). No larval hosts were previously known. In Ecuador it was reared once from Pilea sp. ( Urticaceae ).
