The majority of C. xami's host plants come from Echeveria and Sedum, two genera of flowering plants in the family Crassulaceae.
Many of these flowering plants are native to parts of western and southwestern United States and Mexico.
In Mexico, Echevelia gibbiflora and Sedum allantoides are the most common host plants.
The role of host plants is integral to the oviposition of C. xami.
These plants also serve as a main food resource for the C. xami larvae.
