Spodoptera eridania

A moth that is known to be a pest. They are one of the most important defoliators in the tropical and subtropical regions of the western hemisphere that feed heavily on plants while they are young, often resulting in skeleton leaves on their food plants.

They are also heavy feeders on tomato in Florida.

There is a lot of development in producing pesticides against the S. eridania, specifically a neem-based pesticide that can result in smaller and prolonged development.

The wingspan is 33–38 mm.

Adults are on wing year-round. The larvae feed on various weeds but prefer Amaranthus species and Phytolacca americana.
