Glechoma ground-ivy
Dichotomous table for leafminers
1a blotch, possibly preceded by a narrow corridor => 2
1b corridor, possibly locally widened => 5
1c fleck mine => 7
1d small full depth mines of undefinable, variable shape; the older larvae live free, either between spun leaves or as causers of window feeding => 8
1e galls, etc => Tables for all parasites per species
2a oviposition site, at the leaf margin, covered by a shining black drop of dried secretion; blotch, no initial corridor: Trachys scrobiculatus
2b no such drop; initial corridor present, but may have been be overrun by the later blotch => 3
3a frass in the corridor part in a broad green central band, with tiny black granules at either side: Amauromyza labiatarum
3b frass in the corridor in black grains or thread fragments => 4
4a frass in the entire corridor as neat thread fragments, alternating along the sides: Amauromyza lamii
4b frass in the corridor in shorter, untidily arranged thread fragments; towards the end more in grains: Amauromyza morionella
5a mine full depth: Apteropeda orbiculata
5b mine (almost) entirely upper- or lower-surface; greenish in transparancy => 6
6a mine pinnately branched, main branch overlying the midrib: Liriomyza strigata
6b mine not branched, not associated with the midrib: Phytomyza glechomae
7a greenish lobe case: Coleophora ochripennella
7b black-brown sheath case: Coleophora albitarsella
8a larva colourless-whitish, without thoracic feet: Phytosciara halterata
8b larva grey, thoracic feet present => 9
9a larva: pinacula colourless (the bases of the setae themselves are black) : Cnephasia incertana
9b pinacula black => 10
10a larva: behind/below the anus a chitinous comb: Cnephasia asseclana
10b anal comb absent: Cnephasia stephensiana
In the Uk once Agromyza flavipennis has been observed on Glechoma.
