摘要

Information on adult behaviour and development of Pseudopontia gola Safian & Mitter, 2011 and foodplant records are presented in this paper, along with a short morphological description of its pre-imaginal stages. Although imagos within the genus Pseudopontia could not be distinguished based on macro-morphological features, there are small but clear morphological differences between the larva and pupa of P. gola and P. zambezi. From the limited number of records, larvae of P. gola seem to utilise a single foodplant species in the Opiliaceae, which differ from, but is related to those of P. paradoxa and P. zambezi. These differences also serve as further evidences of the specific status of P. gola.
