They feed on various Asteraceae species, including mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), sea wormwood (Artemisia maritima), Korean wormwood (Artemisia princeps), florist's daisy (Chrysanthemum morifolium), tansy (Tanacetum vulgare), common cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium), saltmarsh fleabane (Pluchea purpurascens), oxeye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare) and Aspilia latifolia. They form a silken tent-shaped shelter on a leaf, within which it feeds before moving onto another leaf.[2]
