CARPINUS. Hornbeam. [Betulaceae]

Only one species of Carpinus is recorded in Britain - Hornbeam (C. betulus). Only one dipterous miner, Agromyza alnibetulae, is recorded on Carpinus in Britain. See BETULA. The agromyzid Phytobia cambii feeds in the cambium of Salix and Populus in Britain and also Alnus, Betula and Carpinus elsewhere. Fifteen non-dipterous miners are recorded on Carpinus in Britain. Elsewhere four additional British non-dipterous miners are recorded on Carpinus.
