Host. Caprifoliaceae : Linnaea borealis L.

Leaf mine. ( Fig. 192 View FIGURES 189–199 ) Whitish, entirely on the upper surface; Griffiths (1974a) described it as “basically linearblotch but with initial linear channel in most cases enclosed by later feeding.” The mines we examined were entirely linear, but sometimes so contorted in the small leaves as to partially form a secondary blotch. Frass is in discrete, closely spaced black particles.

Puparium. Deep yellow, formed within the mine, with its anterior spiracles projecting through the epidermis ( Griffiths 1974a).

Distribution. * USA: OR; Canada: AB, YT ( Griffiths 1974a).
