The caterpillar, soon after hatching, folds a small part of the leaf over itself, creating a temporary home.  As it grows, it makes a larger hiding place by binding leaves together with silk, as shown in the bottom right photo.  A few of the larval food plants include: Black Locust, Wisteria, Lespedeza, and rarely White Wild Indigo (below).
