3.1. Nahrung der Raupe
- [Fabaceae:] Oxytropis floribunda
Nach Gorbunov (2020: 554) lebt die Raupe monophag an Oxytropis floribunda: "The larval host plant is Oxytropis floribunda (Pall.) DC. (Fabaceae) (Fig. 34). The larva lives in the root where it bores a tunnel about 5–7 cm long. Its life cycle is annual. Throughout its life, the larva damages the root of the host plant very badly. In the spring of the next year, such a plant does not have the ability to develop normally and very soon completely dries out. Such dry plants are a very good sign of the presence of a larva or pupa inside the root (Fig. 35). Before pupation, the larva makes an exit tube to the surface of the ground."

Gorbunov (2020: 554) schreibt zur Verbreitung: "Currently it is known to occur locally in the southeastern European part of Russia (Volgograd and Orenburg Regions) and the southern part of the West Siberian Plain (Chelyabinsk Region)." Auch die Nahrungspflanze Oxytropis floribunda zeigt in Europa keine weitere Besiedlung.
