Material examined: 1 3, 1 Ƥ, INDIA: Andaman Islands, Port Blair, 14.ix.1992, K. Veenakumari (BMNH).

Comments: This mangrove-breeding species is widespread in coastal areas of Southeast Asia and Australasia but recorded for the first time from India. It breeds in Excoecaria agallocha L. ( Euphorbiaceae ), a host plant shared with another adramine, Piestometopon luteiceps de Meijere (= Acinoeuphranta zeylanica Hardy ), also widespread in Southeast Asia and recorded from Sri Lanka (Hancock and Drew, 2005) but not yet known from India.
