The larvae feed on the roots of various plants growing under stones in sandy soil, including " Carex arenaria ", " Festuca " and other Gramineae species.
Annual and biennial grasses belong to the family Gramineae, which encompasses everything from the front-yard fescue to bamboo, as well as most important food grains, like wheat, barley, oats and corn.

The terrain is almost entirely treeless peat and its main characteristic is the presence of tuberous vegetable formations covered in low dense Poaceaes ( Gramineae ), lichen and mosses that are resistant to the low temperatures and harsh weather.

There is evidence that " P . granulosus " may be important for seed dispersal as seeds have been found in their stomachs; seeds of the families Gramineae, Moraceae, and Polygonaceae are most often present in their stomachs.

Here he studied agriculture from 1893 96 and took up the post of botanist at the Agricultural Experiment Station in California between 1896-1901, describing the Cyperaceae and Gramineae for " A Flora of Western Middle California " by Willis Linn Jepson.
