The wingspan is 11–15 mm. Adults are on wing from June to September. Several other species of Coleophora look similar and are best identified by reference to the genitalia. [1] The larvae feed on orache ( Atriplex species) and goosefoot ( Chenopodium species). [1] [2] Other recorded food plants include sea purslane ( Halimione portulacoides ) and Amaranthus .
