Caterpillar Hostplants Database
http://www.nhm.ac.uk/entomology/hostplants/

This database from the Department of Entomology at the 
Natural History
Museum, London contains information on worldwide 
caterpillar hostplants. It
consolidates a large amount of data on plants that the 
22,000 Lepidoptera
species eat or otherwise interact with. Users can perform 
searches using
scientific name of either the Lepidoptera or hostplant 
species, or perform a
"drill-down" browse. Search results include the family, 
genus, and species
names for both the Lepidoptera and hostplant; author of the 
primary
literature; and additional information that includes 
location where the
species is found and plant damage resulting from 
interaction.
