The larvae feed on Artemisia campestris and possibly Artemisia maritima. The feeding causes a swelling of the basal part of a young stem of the host plant. The gall may be partly hidden in the soil. The larvae are whitish with a light brown or dark brown head. They can be found in June and July.[4]
