It is found in most of Europe, except part of the Balkan Peninsula and Ukraine and east across the Palearctic. It is also present in most of North America. Rather similar in appearance to some of the other Hedya species, this moth can usually be distinguished by the relatively clean-looking creamy outer part of the forewing.

The larvae feed on Rosa (including cultivated varieties) and Malus species. They spin the leaves together.
