Nationally scarce, on shingle beaches, sand-dunes, chalky ground and dry open areas, in parts of southern England, predominantly coastal. In Hampshire and on the Isle of Wight, common to very common on the coast, occasional inland where it has evidently decreased since the 1970s. Wingspan 22-27mm. Long-legged, like Dolicharthria punctalis but that has a white discal spot, and second line is much more irregular and less conspicuous [Goater]. Larva feeds on various mosses, often on the ground.
