Davey, P., 2009: A local deciduous woodland and moorland species in England, the larval foodplant until recently was unknown. R Heckford and Dr P Sterling managed to rear it from the New Forest from the moss Mnium hornum. In Dorset, the moth is very local and restricted to deciduous woodland and damp heathland. The national norm is for a single brood in July, but in Dorset an extended emergence period is evident from records that span mid-June to mid-September.
