Cornutrypeta spinifrons (Schroeder, 1913)
Solidago virgaurea, Germany (Baden-Württemberg), Baden-Weiler
mine
Broad corridor overlying the midrib. The mine has a number of side branches that distally widen strongly, and may coalesce. Primary and secondary feeding lines very conspicuous.
hostplants
Asteraceae, oligophagous
Aster; Senecio ovatus; Solidago virgaurea.
Maček (1999a) adds Callistephus chinensis and Chrysanthemum indicum.
BENELUX
BE recorded (Leclercq & De Bruyn, 1991a).
NE not recorded (Fauna Europaea, 2007).
LUX not recorded (Fauna Europaea, 2007).
distribution within Europe
From Scandinavia to the Pyrenees, and from the UK to Poland; also in the European part of Russia (Fauna Europaea, 2007).
larva
Rear spiraculum with three elongated papillae.
synonyms
Spilographa, Stemonocera, Vidalia spinifrons.
notes
In 2005 I mentioned in this place the find of this species in the Netherlands (Amsterdam). Since then I have growing doutbs about the identification. The single mine was not yet fully developed, and can just as well be the work of Trypeta zoe. At the present state of knowledge the larva does not enable to discriminate between the two.
