Distribution: Transpalaearctic species, distributed from the British Isles to Japan.

Biological notes: Wet meadows at river banks and lake shores. Two generations in a year. Larvae phytophagous, develop in shoots of Phalaroides arundinacea (L.) Rauschert; larvae of the summer generation develop in exposed panicles. Tissues of leaves above the larva turn brown, and central leaf dries out. Larvae hibernate in basal and aerial shoots and pupate next spring.
