    In common with most oak-feeding Phyllonorycters, cannot be identified from the mine, so identification rests on either rearing the adult or chance findings of adult.  This is one of the scarcer Phyllonorycters, with just three records - Chard Junction (1996), Hollow Marsh (1999) and Great Breach Wood (2019).
