The primary habitat is temperate coniferous forest including Central European mixed forests and Sarmatic mixed forests, Scandinavian montane birch forest. Most frequently on pines but also on Picea abies and other Picea species, Betula pendula and other Betula species, and Populus tremula.

The pronotum is black with a thick white U-shaped mark and two small white spots. The antennae are brown, and the legs are black and brown.
