Epermenia Aequidentellus
''Epermenia aequidentellus'', also known as the carrot lance-wing, is a moth of the family Epermeniidae found in Europe, Madeira and the Canary Islands. It was first described by Ernest Hofmann in 1867, from a specimen found in Vorderer Kaiser, near Kufstein, Austria. Description The wingspan is 9–12 mm. Adults are on wing from June to July and again from September to October in two generations per year. The larvae feed on bur-chervil (''Anthriscus caucalis''), '' Athamanta cretensis'', wild carrot (''Daucus carota''), baldmoney (''Meum athamanticum''), ''Peucedanum'' species, burnet-saxifrage (''Pimpinella saxifraga''), villous deadly carrot (''Thapsia villosa'') and spreading hedgeparsley ('' Torilis arvensis neglecta''). They initially mine the leaves of their host plant. Young larvae make several small, full depth blotch mines. The mines are mostly found in the apical part of the composite leaves. Older larvae live externally on the plant under a slight web, althoug ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Leaf Miner
A leaf miner is any one of numerous species of insects in which the larval stage lives in, and eats, the leaf tissue of plants. The vast majority of leaf-mining insects are moths ( Lepidoptera), sawflies (Symphyta, the mother clade of wasps), and flies ( Diptera). Some beetles also exhibit this behavior. Like woodboring beetles, leaf miners are protected from many predators and plant defenses by feeding within the tissues of the leaves, selectively eating only the layers that have the least amount of cellulose. When attacking ''Quercus robur'' (English oak), they also selectively feed on tissues containing lower levels of tannin, a deterrent chemical produced in great abundance by the tree. The pattern of the feeding tunnel and the layer of the leaf being mined is often diagnostic of the insect responsible, sometimes even to species level. The mine often contains frass, or droppings, and the pattern of frass deposition, mine shape, and host plant identity are useful to de ...
