The larvae feed on Adenocarpus, Calicotome and common broom (Cytisus scoparius). They create a composite leaf case with a mouth angle of about 30°. The frontal leaf fragment is brown and hairy, while the older parts are pale and almost smooth. The case is slender, about 18 mm (0.71 in) long and bears a strong resemblance to the spines of most of its host plants.[3] Full-grown larvae can be found in March and May.
