Many of the larvae are leaf-miners, feeding between the surfaces of leaves, in which they tunnel out mines whose shape is charac- teristic of the species; some are linear, others serpentine, some are trumpet-shaped, while others are irregular blotches. These little larvae are usually white, and are very much flattened, with small, wedge-shaped heads,.
