mine<\/h3>\n

Each mine begins with one, rarely two, oval egg shells attached to the leaf underside. Sometimes a number of of young mines, and eggs, on one leaf. The first part of the mine is a tortuous corridor, quickly turning into a large blotch. Most of the blotch is full depth, only some patches are upper-surface, and greenish when lighted from behind. According to the literature copious frass in present in dispersed lumps. In my experience the larva -that then looks very dark- may accumulate all frass in its . The larva is capable of leaving its mine, and starting a new one elsewhere. These secondary mines can be recognised by the large hole that was made by the larva upon entering. Pupation outside the mine.<\/p>\n

notes<\/h3>\n

The mines can be difficult to separate from those of Scaptomyza graminum<\/a><\/em> (unless egg shells are present), but the larvae are abundantly different.<\/p>\n

Because the leaves are completely mined out, then wither and fall off, the mines may seem more rare than they in reality are.<\/p>\n
