[SoWestLep] Black Witch foodplants

[John Lane]

Looking over my pair of Tietz (heh, heh, heh) I find listed as reported hosts: Acacia hecurrens, Cassia fistula, Ficus
carica, Gymnocladus dioica, Pithecellobium unguiscate, and Samanea saman.
Tietz repeated many an error, so perhaps all aren't valid.  But it seems Legumes are favored.
