This species is a polyphagous scale insect which is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions, including Central and South America, many parts of Africa, southern parts of Asia and northern Australia. It is of quarantine concern in some regions like Europe where it has been intercepted repeatedly on infested fruits (see the EFSA Panel on Plant Health, 2022).

The scale mainly infests leaves and fruits. Colonies can build up to a high density, causing defoliation, premature fruit drop and dieback. There are 3 to 6 generations per year.
