Leaf miners: The hidden herbivores

Austral Ecology, 2010
AbstractLeaf mining is a form of endophagous herbivory in which insect larvae live and feed within leaf tissue. In this review we discuss aspects of leaf miner ecology, and the current evidence for three hypotheses relating to the evolution of this feeding guild.

Plant virus transmission by a leaf-miner fly

Virology, 1958
Abstract Transmission of tobacco mosaic virus and sowbane mosaic virus was obtained by means of adult leaf-miner flies of the species Liriomyza langei Frick. This seems to be the first reported case of virus transmission by an insect of this group. The results indicate that the relationship of the transmitted viruses and the vector is of a mechanical

Insects as leaf engineers: can leaf‐miners alter leaf structure for birch aphids?

Functional Ecology, 2002
Summary This study examined the indirect impacts of leaf‐mining insects, Eriocrania spp. Zeller (Lepidoptera: Eriocraniidae) on a phloem‐feeding insect, Euceraphis betulae Koch (Homoptera: Drepanosiphinae). While many insect herbivores affect one another through changes to host plant chemical composition, Eriocrania also has the potential to affect E.

Perfect is best: low leaf fluctuating asymmetry reduces herbivory by leaf miners

Oecologia, 2004
Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) represents small, random variation from symmetry and can be used as an indicator of plant susceptibility to herbivory. We investigated the effects of FA of two oak species, Quercus laevis and Q. geminata, and the responses of three herbivore guilds: leaf miners, gallers, and chewers. To examine differences in FA and herbivory

Beet leaf miner

1992
The beet leaf miner is the maggot of the sugar beet and spinach in northern Europe. mangold (or mangel) fly (Pegomya hyoscyami (Panzer)) and is a well-known pest of mangel, sugar beet and spinach in northern Europe. The adult is a true fly and should not be confused with the mangold flea beetle (see page 174), which is also sometimes called ‘fly’.

Leaf miners of chrysanthemum

1992
Leaf miners are often found on chrysanthemums and related plants. Normally, these leaf miners are native insects, belonging to the species known as the chrysanthemum leaf miner (Phytomyza syngenesiae (Hardy)), which is a common pest widely distributed throughout the British Isles.

Apparent competition between the invasive horse-chestnut leaf miner and indigenous leaf miners

2007
The horse-chestnut leaf miner, Cameraria ohridella Deschka and Dimic, is a moth of unknown origin that was first observed in Macedonia in 1984 and has now invaded most of Europe. It is now attacked by several native leaf miners' parasitoids. Despite the low parasitism rates observed in C.
