Lyonetia clerkella
Apple Leaf Miner
Attenborough, Nottinghamshire, England - August 2012
The Apple Leaf Miner is common throughout most of Britain. Its larvae mine the leaves of a variety of fruit trees as well as Hawthorn, Blackthorn, Whitebeam and Rowan. Adults are frequently attracted to light traps but, due to their tiny size, are easily overlooked in a busy trap after a warm summer night.
