Eucosmophora Sideroxylonella
''Eucosmophora sideroxylonella'' is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from Cuba and Florida. The length of the forewings is 3.4 mm for males and 3.8 mm for females. The larvae feed on ''Lyonia fruticosa'', ''Dipholis salicifolia'', ''Manilkara jaimiqui'', ''Sideroxylon foetidissimum'', ''Sideroxylon celastrinum'' and ''Sideroxylon pallidum''. They leaf miner, mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine is found on the upperside of young leaves, drawing the leaf longitudinally into a roll or fold, which covers up the mine out of sight.

Eucosmophora Manilkarae
''Eucosmophora manilkarae'' is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from Florida and Texas in the United States. The length of the forewings is 3.3–3.5 mm for males and 3–4 mm for females. The larvae feed on '' Bumelia celastrina'' and ''Manilkara bahamensis''. They mine the leaves of their host plant. On ''Manilkara bahamensis'', the mines occur on the underside of young, yellow-green, still expanding leaves. The serpentine early track often has a reddish orange frass stain that occasionally zigzags from side to side. The mine tends to be dirty brown and rather opaque. Often, there are numerous small tears in the mine that may or may not be sealed over by the larva with a thin webbing of silk. The last two instars mine deeply into the parenchyma, causing discoloration which is visible from above. Mature mines may have an abundance of minute creasing over the lower leaf surface. On ''Bumelia celastrina'', the mine begins as a narrow track that follows a ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Eucosmophora Pouteriae
''Eucosmophora pouteriae'' is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from Costa Rica. The length of the forewings is 3.2–3.6 mm for males and 3.7 mm for females. The larvae feed on ''Pouteria campechiana''. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The early mine is serpentine, yellow-tan, with a dark central frass line. The lower surface of the blotch mine is yellow-brown, and appears to be made well into the parenchyma as it is inconspicuous from both leaf surfaces initially. Mines are often formed close to the midrib. The blotch runs between adjacent lateral veins, but may cross over the veins when situated peripherally on the lamina. Tissue-feeding instars remove patches of parenchyma to the upper leaf surface. The cocoon is chocolate brown. Etymology The specific name is derived from the generic name, ''Pouteria ''Pouteria'' is a genus of flowering trees in the gutta-percha family, Sapotaceae.

Eucosmophora Pithecollobiae
''Eucosmophora pithecollobiae'' is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from Belize and from Florida in the United States. The length of the forewings is 3-3.9 mm for males and 3.3–4 mm for females. The larvae feed on '' Pithecollobium guadalupense'', '' Pithecollobium macrandrium'' and '' Pithecollobium unguis-cati''. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The initial serpentine track is often obliterated by the blotch fashioned by third instar larva. The upper surface of the mine is waxy translucent. The larva remains visible within the mine throughout its development. Portions of the upper mine surface are discolored by the liquidy frass excreted by the sap-feeding instars. The larva removes patches of parenchyma from the floor of the mine, especially about the periphery. The dark green frass is concentrated along the edges of the mine. Etymology The species name is derived from the generic name, ''Pithecellobium ''Pithecellobium'' is a genus of ...

The upper surface of the mine is nearly translucent, the larvae being visible within the mine through their development. Frequently two to five or more mines may anastamose into a single large blotch. The larva exits through a hemispherical slit in the upper leaf surface. The cocoon is orange-brown.
