Paraptila includes eight described species distributed from Mexico to Bolivia ( Brown 1991, 2005), with most of the species recorded from Central America. Host plants were previously unknown for the genus. During the survey in Ecuador, two species of Paraptila were reared: Paraptila equadora Brown, 1991 from Miconia sp. ( Melastomataceae ) (n = 1) and Paraptila nr. argocosma Meyrick, 1912 from Piper kelleyi Tepe et al. (Piperaceae) (n = 1).
