Sorbus aucuparia, Duin en Kruidberg, 8.viii.2001

Sorbus aucuparia, Arnhem, Sonsbeek, 6.ix.2001

mine

Egg at the upper side of the leaf. The mine is a long, gradually widening corridor that often closely follows the leaf margin for a long distance. Frass at first in a broad central line, but soon it becomes coiled. Occasionally mines occur with linear frass throughout; such mines can be distinguished from those of St. magdalenae because they are broader and less confined the a small space.
