The hairs of the caterpillar are microscopically barbed, which is why they can irritate the skin.1
Young caterpillars feed in groups of about 100, but older caterpillars are solitary.1
The adult's forewings are marked with white splotches that look like stained glass.1
The loose cocoon has hairs woven into it and overwinters in leaf litter.1
