Stanisavljević (2000), probably copying Banaszak & Romasenko (1994) states that the species flies from May to June. Amiet et al. (2004) give a flight period in Switzerland from the beginning of mid-April to early August.
Fateryga (2017) reports females active in the Krasnodar region of the North Caucasus (Russia) in June.
Parasites: The Chrysidid wasp Chrysura dichroa lays its eggs into the nests of this species.
