What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

biology_ecology · Plazi

Biology. Gloora alba exhibits pharmacophagy with respect to pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs); it has been reported to be attracted to Heliotropium indicum , a source of PAs, in Venezuela at 1,100 m by Pliske (1975; as Eucereon alba ) ; strong attraction of both sexes to various pure PAs and PA-containing plants in evenings has also been found in Costa Rica by P. Gloor (MB unpubl., cf. Fig. 4 ). Both sexes are attracted to artificial light, too. Males possess interesting tymbal (see Figs. 55‒57 ) and androconial organs and emit pheromones which are detectable with the human nose―details will be reported elsewhere (Boppré et al. in prep.).
