Biology: The yellow larvae develop singly in achenes of Achillea spp. Our records are from A. millefolium ( Asteraceae). The infected achenes are strongly swollen, but the capitulum as a whole shows no outward sign of damage. Bi- or multivoltine. Pupation and hibernation in the gall.
Distribution: Widespread Palearctic, including Norway and Denmark. Introduced to the Nearctic.
