Transtillaspis is diverse in the Neotropics, with 66 described species ranging from Colombia and Venezuela to Peru, Ecuador, and Brazil ( Gilligan et al. 2018). Host plants were previously unknown for the genus. In Ecuador, T. multicornuta Razowski and Wojtusiak, 2008 was reared from three different hosts: unidentified Rubiaceae (n = 1), unidentified Asteraceae (n = 1), and an unidentified plant (n = 1).
