Material examined. KANSAS: Riley Co., Konza Prairie Biological Station , 3.vii.2015, em. 26–30.vii.2015, C.S. Eiseman, ex Eupatorium altissimum , #CSE1850, CNC654486–654490 View Materials (5♀) .

Host. Asteraceae : Eupatorium altissimum L.

Leaf mine. ( Fig. 121 View FIGURES 118–123 ) A yellowish, upper surface blotch, without conspicuous frass.

Puparium. Yellowish-brown, formed outside the mine.

Comments. These females resemble Calycomyza platyptera , but they are unlikely to be that species since its puparium is formed within the mine. The Nearctic Calycomyza species recorded from Eupatorium (as currently circumscribed) are C. artemisiae , C. eupatoriphaga , and C. flavinotum ; all three pupate externally but tend to produce conspicuous frass, and none is recorded from E. altissimum .
