Hostplants: Quercus pubescens Willd. and Q. pyrenaica Willd. (Van Nieukerken et al. 2004a ) . Larvae found in October, adults fly from May to July. Distribution . Spain , Portugal : Van Nieukerken et al. 2004 a , Laštůvka and Laštůvka 2008. A record from Ukraine : Crimea ( Budashkin 1988 ) is not accepted, it is probably the record later interpreted as E. contorta (see there). Here recorded new for San Marino . Widespread in SW Europe, with easternmost records in northern Italy near Verona. Remarks . Mines and larvae of this species can be separated from those of E. albifasciella , E. contorta and E. heringi by the presence of ventral black plates on the larva until early final stage (Fig. 121). Often sympatric with these three species. Material .
