in its normal haunts the species is double brooded, adults occurring in early summer and late autumn. 

 Eggs of 2nd brood were laid on twigs of bladder senna (Colittea arborescens) and hatched in late 

 spring, larvae feeding on young seed pods. Stated that it could not be established in the Channel Islands 

 as the eggs would not survive the winter. Most specimens observed by Lowe were noted to be 

 undersized, stating that it was probably due to a poor Guernsey diet. A brief description of the larvae is 

 given. An account is given of the species general distribution and times of appearance. Rev.R.E. Lowe, 

 1900(3):409-412; & W.A. Luff, 1902b(4f:65 {recorded as Lampides boetica}.
