Habitats and Life History
Habitats: Nearly all of our records come from riparian habitats in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain where River Birch is a common species. One record comes from a high elevation site in Avery County where River Birch is less likely to occur, although it has been recorded in that county.
Larval Host Plants: Larvae have apparently not been observed but this species is highly suspected to feed primarily or exclusively on River Birch, based on the location of most records and the fact that its close sibling, P. ferruginea, is a specalist on birches (Miller et al., 2018)
