    Achaea catocaloides (Guenée, 1852) (Erebidae) is a migratory, polyphagous forest insect that also attacks crops such as cocoa, coffee, citrus, plantain, mango, maize, groundnut, etc. Outbreaks were first reported in Africa, in Entebbe, Uganda, and DR Congo in 1930 (Pitman, 1930; Vinall, 1930). Since then, periodic irruptions occurred in tropical Africa, including Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, Guinea, Gabon, Cameroon, Liberia, Uganda, Kenya, Côte d’Ivoire. The moth is widespread in West, Central, and East Africa. In addition to causing damage to crops, this pest poses a risk of contaminating drinking water sources with caterpillars and their feces
