Zophodia Huanucensis
''Zophodia huanucensis'' is a species of snout moth in the genus ''Zophodia''. It was described by Carl Heinrich in 1939. It is found in Peru. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip.

They feed on the fruit and occasionally the young growth. They are solitary feeders, which normally complete their development in one fruit, but sometimes two adjacent fruits are attacked by a single larva. The larvae are blue-green. Pupation takes place in a cocoon made within the hollowed-out fruit. References Moths described in 1939 Phycitini {{Phycitini-stub ...
