Description : This is a small, distinctive moth found on bogs, heaths, and woodland clearings. Adults are frequently seen by day resting among heather and other low vegetation (like grass). It normally flies in sunshine but is also active at night and is attracted to light in small numbers. The larvae can be found in summer and early autumn on clovers Trifolium spp. and trefoils Lotus spp.
It is widespread and commonly encountered throughout most counties in Europe.
