A resident species often fairly common to common in a wide range of grassy habitats and sometimes very common at mv light along parts of the coast. Probably generally distributed. Usually single-brooded flying mainly from mid-June to mid-August, with an occasional partial second emergence between mid-September and late October. Larvae feed on various grasses including cock's-foot. (Pratt, 2011)
