Abstract

Description of adult, pupae and larvae of Angelabella tecomae gen. nov. sp. nov. are presented. The immature instars of A. tecomae are associated with Tecoma fulva G. Don (Bignoniaceae) in the Azapa valley, First Region, Chile. Only the first instar larva is epidermic. Subsequent instars are located in inner tissues. The final instar larva doesn't feeds, it only has the spinneret and labial palpus developed. Other mouth parts are absents in the final instar larva.
