The occurrence in Hungary (Papp 19946: 502) and Slovakia (Capek and Lukas 1989: 42) is its westernmost distribution. In Hungary reared from the caterpillar Synanthedon tipuliformis Clement. — Localities: 1/1: 4 females: Budapest, Mátyásföld, 20 March 1983 (collecting time of the host), ex Synanthedon tipuliformis Clement 25 April 1983, leg. et educ. Cs. Erdélyi. 1 female: Szigetbecse, 100 m — 1/2: 1 male: Fertőd, ex Synanthedon tipuliformis Clement November 1982 (in laboratory), leg. et educ. Cs. Erdélyi — 1

First reported from the Hortobágy National Park in Hungary (Papp 1983a: 324). In Hungary reared from two caterpillar hosts (new host records): 1.) 1 male: Budaörs, 9 April 1972 (collecting time of the caterpillar), ex Elachista sp.
