Neoleucinodes elegantalis is an insect considered the most serious pest for production and commercialization of solanaceous fruits and vegetables. This study updates the geographic distribution of N. elegantalis in relation to the major agricultural production areas of Solanum lycopersicum, S. melongena, S. betaceum, S. quitoense, and Capsicum annuum in Colombia. The geographic occurrence of the species is expanded to 18 departments distributed across cold, warm, and temperate climates categorized in six of the Holdridge life zones, corresponding to tropical dry forest (bs-T), montane dry forest (bs-PM ), montane rain forest (bh-PM), very humid forest (bmh-PM), lower montane wet forest (bh-MB) and lower montane wet forest (bmh-MB).
