Migrant
A rather common migrant, present almost every year in varying numbers.
Pupates in a loose cocoon in the ground.
Most adults have been observed in summertime. They come to light and have the strange habit of entering bee hives.
The larva lives on different species of Solanum, but mainly on Solanum tuberosum.
