Lyonetia prunifoliella 262
Mine a long sinuous gallery, often whitish in appearance and
often crossing midrib. The egg is laid inside the leaf being injected
through the epidermal layer. This feature helps to distinguish
it from a Nepticulid mine where the egg is laid on the surface
of the leaf. [5+7+9-10]
