The larvae feed on Hyoscyamus albus, Solanum melongena and Solanum nigrum. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a full-depth transparent blotch. A single larva makes several mines. Pupation takes place outside of the mine.[4] The larvae have a light brown body and black head. They can be found from March to October.
