sugarcane borer - Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Fabricius) (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) (Fabricius), is native to the western hemisphere, but not to the United States. It apparently was introduced into Louisiana about 1855, and has since spread to the other Gulf Coast States. It inhabits only the warmer portions of these states, however. Sugarcane borer also occurs throughout the Caribbean, Central America, and the warmer portions of South America south to northern Argentina.
