R e m a r k s. This species was collected as larvae in the Eastern and South-Eastern territories of Azerbaijan. The yellow or brownish-green larvae attach 2 or 3 leaves together with silk and eat the parenchyma tissue on the inside of the leaves. At the end of 3rd instar, the larvae cover the leaves with a silken web.

Larvae of all instars can overwinter in fruit on the tree, in fallen fruit, or in fallen leaves. They continue to feed in the winter when the weather is favorable, especially on evergreens. Pupation occurs in a silken cocoon on the food plant. Adults fly from late June until July. Eggs are light green, pupae are blackish brown. The number of generations varies from 2 to 6 depending upon latitude ( KUZNETSOV 1994). Newly reported for the Caucasian fauna.
