Ectoedemia heringi (Toll, 1934) | ||
Status .....Genuinely uncommon and not an easy find, but recorded from Sherwood Forest NNR in 2009. It has since remained scarce across Sherwood Forest, but a number of exited leaf mines were found at Clipstone Old Quarter in December 2023. Vacated mines are difficult to tell apart from some other late leaf miners, but the mine of E. heringi can be told by the larval frass still being present in the mine. | ||
