It was first described by the Austrian entomologists, Michael Denis & Ignaz Schiffermüller in 1775.
[2] The moth is single-brooded, flying from late June to August, can be found resting on the flower-heads of the larval food plant, tansy (Tanacetum vulgare).
[3] The larvae initially feed on tansy (Tanacetum vulgare) flowers in August, then mine down a shoot, and from November to March, diapause in the roots.
[2] Larvae can be found by searching for wilted stems, or for frass under leaf sheafs.
