Opisina arenosella Walker or leaf eating caterpillar or the black headed caterpillar, a serious defoliator of coconut palm, is an outbreak pest in Andhra Pradesh. In order to characterize the genetic relationship among the O. arenosella collected from various districts of Andhra Pradesh, 625 bp of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COXI) gene was sequenced for 18 larval samples collected from five districts of Andhra Pradesh. The sequence analysis data revealed that out of 625 sites, 14 sites (2.24 %) were variable (polymorphic) without any insertion or deletion and remaining 611 sites were invariable (monomorphic). Phylogenetic analysis revealed the existence of high genetic diversity among all samples collected from different districts. Eleven haplotypes could be observed among the 18 individuals. The high haplotype diversity and low nucleotide diversity support the high level of genetic diversity among the O. arenosella populations.
