Leaf mine: A somewhat inflated full depth blotch, tht begins at the leaf margin. The oviposition causes the leaf to roll inwords, covering (and hiding) the mines. Often several mines in a leaf. Mainly in suckers (Bladmineerders van Europa).

Larva makes large blotch mines, which cause the leaves to curl over . Two mines are illustrated. The rolls brown as the mine ages (British leafminers).

Larva: The larva is illustrated in British leafminers.

Pupa: Details unknown.

Adult: Details unknown.
