Food Plant: Filipendula vulgaris (Dropwort)

Egg: Upper surface of the leaf

Mine: July, late August - October

Notes: The first part of the mine is almost filled with frass and tends to follow the leaf margin. It then broadens into a blotch, which can fill the space between the the midrib and leaf edge.
