The larvae feed on the flowers and unripe seeds of Bunium persicum. They live in a web just below the surface of the flowers. They are pale green, almost whitish, with a large black dorsal mark. Full-grown larvae descend to the ground and spin up amongst leaves. The larvae can be found from the end of June to the beginning of July.
