are laid individually mainly on the adaxial surface of the leaf. Larva and pupa are endophytic. The hypermetamorphic larval development includes early sap-feeding and later tissue-feeding forms. The bulged, elongate mature mine occupies a large proportion of the leaf. The last instar tissue-feeding larva constructs a loose, smooth, cylindrical silk cocoon for pupation attached to the mine by anterior and posterior ends. The cocoon and the mine surface are pierced by the frontal process of the pupa to allow the adult emergence.
