Epilachna borealis Fabricius 1875: 82 ; Blackwelder 1944-1957: 441; Gordon 1975: 133; Duverger 2001b: no pagination. Distribution. Guadeloupe** (introduced). Widespread eastern USA. Notes. An agricultural pest, feeding on cucurbits, beans and other legumes. Records from the southwestern USA, Cuba, Mexico , through Central and South America to Argentina are probably of the similar appearing Epilachna tredecimnotata (Latreille) 1833: 67 (Gordon 1975: 135). Therefore, the Guadeloupe record may be this last species. Plate 34.
