Notes:
Nationally scarce (Nb) on downland, open scrubland and grassy slopes across southern England and Wales, north to Yorkshire. In Hampshire recorded predominantly from the south-east, where the majority of records are from Southsea, Portsmouth and Botley Wood, elsewhere individuals have been recorded at Leckford, Eelmoor Marsh SSSI and Barton-on-Sea. Not recorded from the Isle of Wight since 1969. Wingspan 11-14 mm. The main confusion species is C. follicularis, from which it is separable only by dissection of the genitalia. Larva mines leaves of Mugwort, Ox-eye Daisy, Tansy, Wormwood and Yarrow, living within a movable case; case length 10 mm.
