  Small 
  species 
  that 
  often 
  occur 
  in 
  large 
  numbers 
  on 
  tree 
  trunks 
  in 
  May 
  

   and 
  June. 
  Larvae 
  are 
  leaf 
  miners 
  in 
  early 
  stages, 
  later 
  feeding 
  externally. 
  

   When 
  mature 
  they 
  spin 
  a 
  slender 
  silken 
  cocoon 
  with 
  longitudinal 
  ribs 
  or 
  

   ridges, 
  which 
  are 
  characteristic 
  for 
  the 
  genus. 
  Hibernate 
  as 
  pupa.

  PHYLLONORYTER 
  Hbn. 
  

  

  All 
  the 
  species 
  of 
  this 
  genus 
  = 
  "Lithocolletis" 
  Hbn., 
  are 
  leaf 
  miners, 
  

   and 
  as 
  their 
  habits 
  throughout 
  are 
  very 
  similar, 
  individual 
  dates 
  and 
  

   localities 
  are 
  mostly 
  omitted. 
  The 
  earliest 
  mines 
  are 
  found 
  late 
  in 
  July 
  

   and 
  until 
  frost 
  there 
  are 
  two 
  or 
  more 
  broods, 
  frequently 
  overlapping.
