Hi!
Photo on Finland Kokkola 16 Aug. 2020.
Is it possible to get species for that corridor?
In Artemisia vulgaris.
Thanks in advance.

Several other species form very similar mines and it is not possible to put a name to the causer.

Thanks to Barry for the sensible word of warning!
Adults are usually straightforward to rear from mines. With luck you will get a male and then the ID can be confirmed.
