Stubbs, 2003: 24, 27 (on grazing levels, ditch and pond margins with gentle shallow margins or cattle trampled berms provide most records; bare mud or peat needs to be exposed as tiny patches between vegetation; larvae probably semi-aquatic in fully saturated marginal substrate, and capable of withstanding some degree of submergence during flooding; they are assumed to be detritivores; it is assumed that adults do not feed but they might visit flowers such as Berula at night; the paper includes further details on monitoring techniques and examples of good/bad practice).
