Phalonia dipoltella f. rubiginosella Dufrane, 1955
The wingspan is 12–16 millimetres (0.47–0.63 in).[4][5] They are on wing from May to June and again from July to August in two generations per year.[6]
The larvae feed on Chrysanthemum, Tanacetum, Achillea, Matricaria and Chamomilla species. They live in the flowers and seeds of their host plant. The species overwinters and pupates in the larval habitation during spring.
