Happy Christmas (and leafminer queries)

A Happy Christmas all!

Nothing in the trap for weeks so I'm reheating some leftovers - I attempted to take some pictures back in October - had a look over the UK leafminer site, put it to one side and then had a look today.

I've made some tentative IDs, can someone confirm?

I think I have

Lyonetia clerkella (apple) - also seems to be on the Cherry.

Parornix fagivora (copper beech)

Phyllonorycter corylifoliella (apple)

Phyllonorycter leucographella (apple)

  1. Hi Mark, the first is probably correct although I would have preferred a better shot (Lyonetia clerkella tends to be very common where it occurs). I'm not sure about the second one on beech but the last two are definitely correct. Happy Christmas!
