Tobacco Cutworm
Symptom
Damage caused by the tobacco cutworm (Spodoptera litura) on chili plants is characterized by irregular holes in the leaves, complete defoliation, and damage to flower buds and pods. In severe infestations, the larvae skeletonize the leaves, consuming the green tissue and leaving only the veins intact. The destructive larval stage may also harm flowers and buds, and frass (black or greenish excrement) is often found near the feeding sites.
