Phyllocnistis sp. (probably sp. nov.) Mine type: Linear-expanded (Figure 9). Host: Hibbertia scandens (Willd.) Gilg. Locality: Lisarow, Notes: Larvae at first construct an extensive linear type mine in the lower parenchyma, then migrate internally to the upper palisade layer alongside the mid-vein near the base of the leaf, to complete their mines. Mines are visible as a pale pinkish linear marking on the lower surface, and a reddish-brown serpentine area more or less conforming to the shape of the mine, on the upper surface. Mines are similar to, but usually larger than, those of P. diaugella. The excreta, which are deposited in a sinuate line transversely, stain the mine cuticle dark brown, similar to mines of P. diaugella. The leaf is drawn into a crease or fold along the distal portion of the mine where the cocoon is constructed, and where the larva pupates. Larvae were collected during September and February. Pupation occupies about 12 days during September, and the pupal exuviae is protruded from the extremity of the mine as the adult Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales; Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales.
