A
not so common species in Belgium.
The
larvae bores through a shoot of Cardaria draba and Cardamine amara and making holes in the leaves. Later it feeds on
the underside of a leaf. Pupation in an open network cocoon on
the foodplant or amongst detritus on the ground.
The
adults fly in one generation a year; June and July. The moths come to
light.
