Amphinotus nymphula is an

Clidemia hirta compared to males. It is hypothesized that the invasive plant species has a negative effect on Tetrigidae as it changes the microclimate in the habitat by changing the habitat's structure and providing more shade. Possibly, the males of the species are more sensitive to any changes, as they are relatively more active than the females and may require more sunlight.[2]
