New to Belgium in 2019 in LG.
A species that is closely related to Depressaria douglasella species group and cannot be identified based on external characteristics.
Native
The caterpillars would eat the lower leaves of the food plant. There are indications that the species does not overwinter as an adult.
Adults are on the wing during July and August.
The larva lives exclusively on Pimpinella major.
It inhabits marshy areas along small rivers in higher areas where the food plant grows.
