The mine of Parornix betulae can appear similar, but the
underside becomes brown whereas the mine of P. anderidae stays green (British
leafminers).
Small
lower-surface tentiform mine; epidermis pale green, rather weakly
folded. The pupa lies without a cocoon in the mine (Bladmineerders
van Europa).

South Hampshire and West Norfolk (NBN
Gateway - N.B. includes Watsonian Vice Counties having publicly
available records that fall within or overlap the vice county border
at 10km resolution or better i.e. a record for a vice county may relate to an adjacent vice county - for included datasets see NBN Grid map below). See also British
leafminers distribution map.
