''Cosmopterix schmidiella'' is a moth of the Cosmopterigidae family. It is found from most of Great Britain to Romania, and from Japan through central Russia to the Iberian Peninsula. It is believed to be extinct in Britain. The wingspan is 9-9.5 mm.〔(Hants Moths )〕 Adults are on wing from August to May. Then the larva hibernates outside of the mine in a hibernaculum. The larvae feed on ''Lathyrus montanus'', ''Lathyrus niger'', ''Vicia sepium'' and ''Vicia pisiformis''. They mine te leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a large blotch, that may occupy an entire leaflet. During feeding pauses, the larva rests in a silken resting place above the midrib. Pupation takes place outside of the mine.〔(bladmineerders.nl )〕 ==Subspecies== *''Cosmopterix schmidiella schmidiella'' *''Cosmopterix schmidiella mongoliella'' Sinev, 1979 (Mongolia) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cosmopterix schmidiella」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
