Host plants:
The larvae are polyphagous on herbs and dwarf shrubs.

Habitat:
Dyscia innocentaria inhabits dry and warm, partly also rocky places. I recorded moths in a mixture of fallow and agricultural land with stone walls in central Sicily in late April 2023.

Life cycle:
The moths obviously occur in two generations in spring (April to June) and autumn (September/October). Phenology should still be better studied. The larvae develop in winter, those of the next generation in summer.

Remarks:
Dyscia innocentaria occurs in SE-Europe (Italy, Balkans, S-Ukraine) and SW-Asia. In Sardinia and Corsica it is replaced by a closely related taxon (Dyscia govii).
