Bibliography of the Neotropical Cornstalk Borer, Diatraea Lineolata (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

A bibliographic revision of the neotropical cornstalk borer (NCB), Diatraea lineolata (Walker) is presented. The bibliographical entries include information on distribution, taxonomy, host plants, biology, damage, and control of the NCB. However, only a few references cited include substantial and complete information on the NCB. Most of the citations include brief local observations and preliminary information on this species. The NCB has been poorly studied in spite of its wide distribution and importance as a pest of corn in the neotropical region.
