In gluing second and third pieces, larva changes orientation of case each time, so that dorsal side becomes ventral. Some branches with dried apex; usual piece may be much longer than required and even protrude behind case, giving it an unusual appearance. Valve undeveloped, and moth moves out of case through caudal tube, using suture on lower side. Length 6.5 to 7.5 mm. Color chocolate-brown to yellow. September-October. Larvae hibernate after feeding. On H. aphyllum (Minkw.)."
