Pear-leaf Blister Moth

Usually recorded as a leaf-miner on hawthorn or apple.&nbsp; Scarce and local in the county.&nbsp; Most records are from the Porlock area, but
also recently from Frome and Ditcheat.

Laburnum Leaf-miner

Scarce, and scattered in distribution across the
county.&nbsp; It has been recorded at light
but is more usually recorded as a leaf-mine.&nbsp;
There are two potential hostplants, dyer’s greenweed which is a
declining native species, and laburnum which is a predominately urban
ornamental.&nbsp; Although recorded from both
species in Somerset, dyer’s greenweed still seems to be the preferred host.

Broom Bent-wing

This species mines the leaves of broom.&nbsp; Like a number of species associated with
broom, it was recorded from Brislington in the 1906 Victoria County History but
has not been seen in the county since. It may still occur in the area or in
parts of western Somerset where broom is still widespread.
