Comment: A view of the upper leaf surface. Unoccupied mines were on Quercus marilandica; frass only on underside of leaf; most is in the mine and produced a Y-shaped pattern. Appears to be a different species from another Stilbosis from the same site that deposits frass on both the upper and lower surfaces of the mine.
