''Emporia melanobasis'' is a species of snout moth in the genus ''Emporia''. It was described by Balinsky in 1991, and is known from South Africa. ==Jumping beans==
The larvae pupate〔(The jumping bean - Emporia melanobasis, Hmpsn )〕 inside fruit of ''Spirostachys africana''. Larvae develop with the growing fruits which show no external damage. When the fruits are mature each splits into 3 cocci. The larvae jack-knife inside the fallen segments, causing them to move about erratically and vigorously, to the surprise of the uninitiated. This has led to the name "Jumping Bean Tree". A similar phenomenon occurs with the Mexican jumping bean, ''Sebastiania sp.'', which also belong to the Euphorbia family. This bean is parasitised by the moth ''Cydia deshaisiana''.
