Species account from Moths of Glamorgan
(Gilmore, Slade & Stewart, 2009):

Univoltine, flying from May to June in conifer plantations. Found as recently as 1998 around the Aberdare-Merthyr area, and it has been recorded regularly here since. Away from this region it is very scarce, but is probably under-recorded as vast areas of suitable forestry have yet to be surveyed for moths.
