0316 Phyllonorycter roboris (Zeller, 1839) - (Gracillariidae / Lithocolletinae)

 

Notes: Uncommon, in mature oak woodland, in parts of England and eastern Wales. Not recorded in Hampshire or on the Isle of Wight to date. Wingspan 7-9mm. Imago fairly regular at light, but more frequently recorded in the larval stage, when mines are relatively easy to find where they are present. Larva mines leaves of Oak, over-wintering as a pupa in a cocoon.
