The female lays down about 70 or 80 eggs brown and striated. The egg-laying is done in such branches of elms (Ulmuss spp) although it can also be found in willows, poplars and also in other fruit trees. The caterpillars are living in a group until the last change, and after that, they get pre-Chrysalid which is done so independient in dry branches or in a wall. The Metamorphosis lasts 2 to 3 weeks and the adult enter into diapause during the summer, reducing the growth rate in this season.
