APOSERIS. [Asteraceae]


Aposeris is not recorded in Britain.

Elsewhere the agromyzids Chromatomyia 'atricornis', Liriomyza taraxaci, Liriomyza strigata, Ophiomyia pulicaria and the tephritid Trypeta immaculata are recorded mining Aposeris.

A key to the European miners, based on characteristics of the mines, immature stages and where relevant the larval cases, recorded on Aposeris is provided in Bladmineerders van Europa. This includes Orthochaetes setiger, Chromatomyia 'atricornis', Liriomyza taraxaci, Liriomyza strigata, Ophiomyia pulicaria, Phytomyza aposeridis, Phytomyza monori and Trypeta immaculata.
