Habitat:
Oropodisma chelmosi inhabits most often stony, nutrient-poor and sparsely vegetated places between 1500 and 2000m.

Life cycle:
The adults appear often not until mid- or late July and should be found still in early October. The individuals rest on the ground. In bad weather or at night they hide below stones.

Remarks:
Oropodisma chelmosi is endemic to the central Peloponnese where it occurs from Mount Chelmos a considerable distance southward.
