Leaf Miner damage to citrus leaves.
Found on a Tangerine tree in our orchard with other citrus trees nearby.
Leaf miner damage is caused by the larvae of flies, moths, saw flies and beetles. The larvae are protected from predators by the tough exterior tissue of the leaves while they consume the softer interior tissue.
