Never far from a micro-moth

I spotted these leaf mines on a couple of roses in the garden. I think all three are made by the larvae of Stigmella anomalella, one of the commonest of a large group of micro-moths, the Nepticulidae. Even if you never notice the tiny moth, it gives its game away with the intriguing patterns made by the growing larva as it burrows between layers of leaf cells. Its entire larval history is sketched out here in a frass (poo) filled gallery, from the tiny hole where an egg was laid to the large chamber from which the mature caterpillar broke out and fell to the earth to pupate. There will almost certainly be other species of moths leaving their signatures on other leaves in the garden - it's a race now to see them before all the leaves drop.
