were collected on citrus and other fruit trees in mixed agricultural situations. The adults are very agile; they make short, fast, evasive flights, usually downward and toward the interior of the tree. In the lab, eggs were deposited separately (with isolated stalks), in small groups with no particular pattern; the stalks were sticky, but without droplets. The larvae carry pieces of woody plant material and other debris; they are agile, but not particularly fast moving.
