CONRINGIA. Garlic Mustard. [Brassicaceae]

Garlic Mustard (C. orientalis, formerly Erysimum) is the only native species of Conringia recorded in Britain. Two dipterous miners, the polyphagous agromyzid Chromatomyia horticola and the drosophilid Scaptomyza flava are recorded on Conringia in Britain. See BRASSICA. Elsewhere the agromyzids Liriomyza strigata and Phytomyza rufipes and the drosophilid Scaptomyza flava are recorded mining Conringia. No non-dipterous miners are recorded on Conringia in Britain.
