The larvae have been recorded feeding on Eremophila bowmanii, Eremophila freelingii, Eremophila latrobei, Eremophila longifolia, Eremophila sturtii, Eremophila mitchellii, Myoporum deserti, Myoporum montanum, Carissa lanceolata, Gyrocarpus americanus, Prostanthera striatiflora, Hibiscus panduriformis, Acacia farnesitana, Sesamum indicum, Santalum acuminatum, Duboisia myoporoides and Clerodendrum floribundum.
