Forewings long, light shining greyish-ochreous, indistinctly strigulated with grey ; a grey discal mark beyond middle. Hindwings light grey ; cilia whitish-grey. To certainly determine the species of the genus Nematopogon dissection and study of the genitalia is necessary. Adults are on wing from April to August. Females have been observed laying eggs on various herbaceous plants, including Ajuga, Alliaria petiolata, Glechoma hederacea and Urtica species. The larvae feed on dead leaves throughout the winter and all the following year until the following spring. They constructs a case from detritus, within which it lives. References
