The species was collected in 1904 from bushes of Limoniastrum guyonianum, they are also found on Limoniastrum monopetalum.[1] These also had mines, which probably belong to this species. These mines consist of a narrow gallery following the leaf margin upwards and down again along other the side. The frass is concentrated in narrow midline.
