Takecallis species occur on various bamboos such as Arundinaria spp., Bambusa spp., Dendrocalamus spp., Pseudosasa spp., Phyllostachys spp., Pleioblastus spp., and Sasa spp. ( Poaceae ).
Distribution.
This genus is native to the Oriental region, but one or more species occur as introduced populations in Australian, Ethiopian, Palearctic, Nearctic, and Neotropical regions.
