03F5878B6676FFF1FF45F98AA4C63B91.taxon	biology_ecology	Life history Native to the Atlantic Forest Biome, C. leptophylla is a widely spread species of Fabaceae. Mainly due to its ornamental appearance, it is commonly used in afforestation and urban decoration of streets and parks (Figs 35, 36). The species also has an ecological importance and is used to restore degraded areas. In natural environments, it occurs in secondary formations, mainly in mixed rainforest regions (Lorenzi 2002). The plant has indehiscent pods, which do not expose their seeds in both periods (pre and post dispersive) (Figs 36, 37); such pods are rigid and highly resistant, normally reaching more than 40 cm in length and harbor dozens of seeds (Fig. 37). Adults of C. tonosticha (Fig. 38) oviposit on the pods of C. leptophylla (Fig. 39) in both dispersive periods. The larvae (Fig. 41) initially pierce and feed on the pod and its internal tissues and later pierce the seed coat, then accessing the endosperm and other structures (Figs 40, 41). Dissection of pods facilitate the observation of where seeds have been or not predated (Fig. 42). In the last instar, the larva weaves the cocoon inside the pod, where it was previously occupied by the seed that was preyed upon (Fig. 42). The cocoon has a circular operculum (Fig. 42) which, before the emergence of the adult, is opened by the pupa (Fig. 43). In this process, the exuvia is partially protracted out of the opening in the pod (Fig. 44).	en	Pereira, Cristiano Marcondes, Lemes, José Ricardo Assmann, Marinoni, Luciane (2024): Description of the immature stages and natural history of the generalist seed feeder moth Cydia tonosticha (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae).
