The larvae feed on Astragalus arenarius , Astragalus hamosus , Astragalus onobrychis , Genista tincoria , Hippocrepis comosa , Onobrychis sativa , Onobrychis saxatilis , Onobrychis supina and Onobrychis viciifolia . They create a straw-coloured lobe case of 8–10 mm. It has a mouth angle of 55-60°. The shape of the case is exceptionally variable. The mouth opening is shifted to the side of the case, causing the case to lie on its side on the leaf. [4] Larvae can be found from autumn to the following June.
