The Sugarcane borer (Chilo terrenellus) is a species of moth of the Crambidae family. It is found in Papua New Guinea and islands in the Torres Strait.The larvae feed on sugarcane. They tunnel into the stalks of their host plant. This may result in dead tops, broken stalks and reduced sugar content, as well as poor-quality canes. The tunnelsalso provide access for other pests and pathogens.
