Habitats and Life History
Habitats: Based on the distribution of its host plant, this species should be found in a number of dry-xeric woodlands, glades, and barrens. As of 2022, one of our two site records comes from a "bean dip" in the Sandhills: a relatively mesic Longleaf Pine flatwoods that is rich in legumes and other forbs. The second is also from the Sandhills and from a residential home that is surrounded by early successional habitat.
Larval Host Plants: Larvae have been recorded on False Boneset (Brickellia eupatorioides) (Wagner et al., 2011) - View
