The cofee leaf miner, Leucoptera cofeella (Guérin-Mèneville), is one of the main cofee pests (Cofea spp.) in the Neotropical region. This moth species develops exclusively on leaves of Cofea plants. In this study, we investigated the oviposition preference and performance of L. cofeella in environmentally stressed Cofea arabica L. plants. These plants were exposed to three independent treatments: (a) shade levels (0%, 50%, and 100%), (b) water availability (constant and intermittent irrigation), and (c) the application of phytohormones (salicylic acid, SA; or methyl jasmonate, MeJA). Groups of leaves from these treatments were exposed to individual L. cofeella-mated females, and the number of eggs laid per leaf and the performance in terms of the duration of the immature stages and survival of L. cofeella was recorded. Our results showed that oviposition preference was indistinct among the evaluated treatments. However, leaf miner larvae developed faster under 50% shade level, whereas survival was lower in plants under 100% shade level. Individuals reared on plants under 100% shade level showed slower larval development and smaller adult size. Constant plant irrigation decreased the L. cofeella survival. The application of MeJA delayed larval development, while the application of SA increased adult size. Our results suggest that plant environmental stress should be considered when studying the performance of specialist insect herbivores.
