Abstract: The cultivation of hardy pecan, Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch (Juglandaceae), has increased in Brazil in the current century; however, the knowledge about insect pests is limited. This report deals with the occurrence of Gymnandrosoma aurantianum (Lima) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in pecan trees for the first time in Brazil, discussing symptoms and possible risks.
