Phyllonorycter schreberella

Fabricius, 1781352 / 15.074

General comments:
A large, sub-circular mine on elm leaves will probably be this species - usually easily separated from the smaller and elongated mines of P. tristrigella. It appears to be far less prevalent than tristrigella, however.

Mine: Either the leaf or a good photograph required

Recorded in 31 (76%) of 41 10k Squares.
First Recorded in 1890.
Last Recorded in 2023.
