It includes six species distributed sparsely across the Old World from Africa and Madagascar to Australia and New Guinea. Biology The genus is poorly studied, but the Australian species, Dudgeonea actinias, tunnels in trunks of Canthium attenuatum (Rubiaceae) and the pupa is extruded like many other internal feeders.
