Peter, hence should be removed from the column "Rasprostraneie" as follows: From Panama and Costa Rica to the north to the south-east of Belize and Mexico
And from the line "Feed the plants caterpillars" the following: Psychotria panamensis and Psychotria nervosa (Rubiaceae), Pavonia guanacastensisof
(Malvaceae) This information applies to a different species. Sorry. I'm confused.
