Description edit

The wingspan is 10–12 mm.[2] Adults are on wing from the end of June to mid-September in one generation per year.

The larvae feed on great willowherb (Epilobium hirsutum) and broad-leaved willowherb (Epilobium montanum), mining the leaves of their host plant. The mine consists of a large full depth blotch in the lower leaves and the larva can make several mines. Most frass is deposited in coarse grains. The larvae are brownish red with a black head and can be found in early spring. Pupation takes place inside the mine or in the ground.[3] The species overwinters in the larval stage.[4]

Distribution edit

It is found in most of Europe, except the Mediterranean islands and most of the Balkan Peninsula.
