Common throughout much of the British Isles, more numerous in the south. Widespread and common in Hampshire and on the Isle of Wight. Wingspan 5-6 mm. While the adult moth, like most Stigmella requires dissection to identify, unless bred, it is best recorded from the larval mines on the leaves of Elm.
