The larvae feed on Haloxylon aphyllum. They create a leafy case, consisting of a thin caudal tube (the initial case rolled from cut skin of first mine) and two apices of hollowed branches. The valve is undeveloped and the adult moves out of the case through the caudal tube. The length of the case is 6.5–7.5 mm (0.26–0.30 in) and it is chocolate-brown to yellow in color. Larvae can be found from September to October.[2]

gollark: Well, you need to distinguish between them.
gollark: Also, why not store the type of block too?
