| Abstract |
Aristobia reticulator (F., 1781), originally described from an unknown location in “British India”, is redescribed and illustrated based on specimens from northeastern India. This is the first detailed account of the external morphology of both sexes of the species, which includes external sexually dimorphic characters. A new food plant, Microcos paniculata L. (Malvaceae), for adults is reported. |
