Hi, Is it possible to tell the species of the fly by its mine on this Alnus glutinosa? Photo 11 Sep. 2016 in Kokkola Finland. Pentti Pentti Ketola attached the following image:  [95.56Kb] |

Might be Agromyza alnivora, but there are also other animals (butterflies, beetles...) whose larvae are leaf miners - see the key for mine shapes in Dutch and English http://www.bladmi.../alnus.htm. Regards, Sundew |

It looks as if the frass is in a single, median line in the mine. That would make it unlikely to be a dipteran mine...
