Description
The wingspan is 10–12 mm. There is one generation per year, with adults on wing in June.[2]
The larvae feed on mountain willow (Salix arbuscula), tea-leaved willow (Salix phylicifolia), and Salix silesiaca, mining the leaves of their host plant. Young larvae make a distinctly folded lower-surface tentiform mine. After some time, this mine is vacated and the larva lives freely in a leaf margin that has been folded downwards and is secured with silk. In small leaves the two halves are simply spun together in a pod. Two of these leaf folds are made and eaten out.[3]
Distribution
The moth is found from Fennoscandia and northern Russia to the Pyrenees, Italy and Romania and from Scotland to Ukraine.
