It is found most of Europe and is also found in North America. The wingspan is 15–20 mm. Adults are on wing from August to October, they overwinter and reappear the following spring. The larvae feed on Viburnum species, including Viburnum lantana and Viburnum opulus. They twist a leaf to form a pocket and feeds from within.
