Prefers open country.
The adults are on the wing in June and July, mainly at night but they also rest on rocks and tree trunks during the day.
The larvae feed on various decaying plant matter and possibly roots of Ragwort.
It is fairly common over most of Britain, though less so in Scotland. In the Butterfly Conservation’s Microlepidoptera Report 2011 this species was classified as common.
Fairly frequent but not common in Leicestershire & Rutland. L&R Moth Group status = B (scarce resident or restricted distribution or regular migrant)
