Eupanacra elegantulus Eupanacra elegantulus Eupanacra elegantulus is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from south-east Asia, including Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia the Philippines. It is similar to "Eupanacra mydon", except for the pattern elements found on the upperside of the forewing which are much clearer. Furthermore, the discal spot is larger in males and more prominent in females since these have a paler ground colour. There are two rows of black dots and a large black spot on the underside of the abdomen. The larvae have been recorded feeding on "Dieffenbachia", "Syngonium" and "Monstera deliciosa". Young larvae are slender,
Plant tolerance to herbivory Erb "et al." 2009). However, the importance of this mechanism to tolerance is not well studied and it is unknown how much it contributes to tolerance since stored reserves mostly consist of carbon resources, whereas tissue damage causes a loss of carbon, nitrogen and other nutrients (Tiffin 2000). This form of tolerance relies on constitutive mechanisms, such as morphology, at the time of damage, unlike the induced mechanisms mentioned above. Plant architecture includes roots to shoots ratios, stem number, stem rigidity and plant vasculature (Marquis 1996, Tiffin 2000). A high roots to shoots ratio will allow plants to better absorb
