Habitats and Life History
Habitats: This species is common in many areas that lack Poplars and where Willows are the likely hosts.
Larval Host Plants: The larvae appear to specialize on poplars and willows (Prentice, 1966; Miller, 1987; Brown et al. 2008; Lam et al., 2011). The reported hosts include Balsam Poplar (Populus balsamifera), Quaking Aspen (Populus tremuloides) and willows (Salix). Forbes (1923) reported dock (Rumex) to be a host, which needs additional verification. Populations in North Carolina presumably feed on our native willows and perhaps other hosts. - View
