Leaf-mine: Larva initially forming a narrow linear leaf-mine, adjoining margin of leaf; later forming a broad blotch, with conspicuously greenish-diffused frass (Spencer, 1972b: 37, fig. 109; Spencer, 1976: 103, fig. 157). The leaf-mine is illustrated in British leafminers and Nederlandse bladmineerders. Mines of Agromyza demeijerei on Laburnum anagyroides.
