abstract
Crapemyrtle aphid, Tinocallis kahawaluokalani Kirkaldy was observed during a field survey in Odisha and Jharkhand infesting leaves of Lagerstroemia speciosa (L.) Pers. which is a new record from these two states. Therefore, it is a report for new geographical distribution along with new host plant record which impose a significant contribution to insect-plant interaction.
