Little is known about the biology of this species. In Guanacaste it is frequently attracted to lights, which indicates a nocturnal activity. Preston-Mafham (1990) reports that P. hamata has been seen feeding on chafer beetles (Phyllophaga sp. ) attracted to lights at night in tropical forest in Chiapas State, Mexico . The call of P. hamata is unknown.
