Host Plant Data
The HOSTS database lists only two species of Psychidae on Salix (willow) in the Nearctic region: Thyridopteris ephemeraeformis and Oiketicus abbotii, neither of which specializes in Salix or related plants (Thyridopteris ephemeraeformis is best known for feeding on conifers, but has been reported to also be fond of black willow, Salix nigra). There might also be other generalists that would eat Salix but just haven't been reported on it.
