''Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society'' 63 (3): 137-140.〕 Adults are on wing from late March to early April. The larvae feed on ''Yucca schidigera''. They feed in a gallery inside the fruit wall of developing fruits of their host plant. ==Etymology== The species epithet reflects that a fruitfeeding bogus yucca moth had been predicted, but never identified, to exist on ''Yucca schidigera'', despite decades of attention by entomologists.
