Cameraria sempervirensella

Wikipedia Abstract

Cameraria sempervirensella is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from California, United States. The length of the forewings is 3.5–5 mm. The larvae feed on Chrysolepis sempervirens. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine is ovoid and the epidermis is opaque, tan. All mines cross the midrib and consume 70%-95% of the leaf surface. The mines are solitary and usually have two folds, but often one.
