Mine

The larvae feed on Vitis aestivalis , Vitis labrusca and Vitis riparia . They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mines are relatively large. No gallery is visible and the mine has the form of a large blotch, with a roundish patch of reddish frass near the beginning, probably attached to the upper epidermis, and dispersed black frass throughout the mine.
