The greatest number of the mines in the first generation appeared in the first half of June. Adults were observed in early to mid July, when the next generation would occur. In the first generation, many adults emerged and, as a result, the population density increased remarkably during the second generation. In November, during leaf fall, the last instar larvae were overwintering inside the blotches. Live larvae were observed, yet sedentary through a cut in the upper epidermis in winter at the height of the cold. They became active and pupated after the end of the cold weather period.</paragraph>

larvae started from the end of May and continued in two generations until the beginning of December. In the first generation during 2018, the 1st larval instar hatched late May (22nd) and feeding on leaf tissue within the mine. The first and second larval instars formed a short linear mine towards the leaf edge. Third instar larvae appeared at the end of May (27th), the last instar nearly at the first half of June (10th), and adults emerged from mid June (16th) to the 1st of July.
