Opogona sacchari (Bojer, 1856) - (banana moth)
This moth is found in various tropical and subtropical regions and attacks a variety of crops. Common hosts are banana fruits, sugarcane, Dracaena and several palms. The adult moth has a wingspan of around 20 mm with a brownish forewing colouration.
The caterpillars typically feed initially on already injured and decaying plant parts and then attack the healthy tissue. They can damage leaves, stems, fruits or roots. On bananas, the main damage is on the fruits through the tunnelling activities of the larvae. This also leads to export restrictions of bananas into some countries due to quarantine concerns.
