A review of the North American species of Homoneura says "The larvae have been reported as being saprophagous, living in fallen leaves, straw, rotting wood, bird nests, and decaying vegetation. A few species have been reported to be phytophagous, living in the root collars, stems, and leaves of clover (Trifolium), in the ovaries of violets (Viola), and in the leaf-like phylloclades of prickly pear (Opuntia)."
