The wingspan is 11–14 mm (0.43–0.55 in). [1] Adults are on wing from late June to early August.

The larvae feed on the leaves of Artemisia princeps and Artemisia montana . [2] They create a leaf-case, made of leaf fragment which are cut from the edges of the leaves of the host plant and attached (one behind the other) in a zigzag manner. The colour is generally dark greyish-brown, except for some sections which are densely covered by light-coloured felt. The case is about 8 mm (0.31 in) long.
