- Phytomyza crassiseta Zetterstedt (Fig. 184) Material examined. MASSACHUSETTS: Franklin Co., Sunderland, Falls Rd., 13.vii.2012, em. 23.vii.2012, C.S. Eiseman, ex Veronica officinalis (1♀); Hampshire Co., Pelham, 88 Arnold Rd., 25.vi.2014, em. 2–16.vii.2014, C.S. Eiseman, ex Veronica chamaedrys, #CSE1148, CNC384850–384862 (13♀); NORTH CAROLINA: Durham Co., Durham, Duke University, 23.v.2016, em. 29.v–3.vi.2016, T.S. Feldman, ex Veronica persica, #CSE2517, CNC654295–654302 (8♀); Pelham Rd., 30.iv.2016, em. 14–16.v.2016, T.S. Feldman, ex Veronica peregrina, #CSE2461, CNC634800–634803 (4♀); 14.vii.2017, em. 26–31.vii.2017, T.S. Feldman, ex Veronica serpyllifolia, #CSE4022, CNC939784 (1♀); Scotland Co., Laurinburg, St. Andrews University, 2.v.2016, em. 17.v.2016, T.S. Feldman, ex Veronica arvensis, #CSE2468, CNC634782 (1♀). Hosts. Plantaginaceae: Hebe speciosa (R. Cunn. ex A. Cunn.) J.C. Andersen (Spencer 1981), Veronica arvensis L., V. chamaedrys L., V. officinalis L., V. * peregrina L., V. persica Poir., V. * serpyllifolia L. Ours are the first rearings from Veronica in North America, but these and numerous other Veronica species are used by Phytomyza crassiseta in Europe (Ellis 2016). Leaf mine. (Fig. 184) A narrow linear mine at the leaf margin, which may later widen and become blotch-like (Spencer & Steyskal 1986). Frass is deposited in small black grains or occasionally in short strips. Puparium. Slender, white or yellowish, with a conspicuous dark band running centrally along the ventral surface; formed within the leaf on the lower surface (Spencer & Steyskal 1986). In at least one example we examined, the puparium was formed with its ventral surface against the upper epidermis. Distribution. USA: CA, ID, *MA, *NC, NY (Scheffer & Lonsdale 2018), PA (Rosenfeld 2014), VA, WA; Europe. We have seen leaf mines in MD and ME (including a photograph submitted to www.BugGuide.net), and Spencer (1969) reported a probable mine of this species from Canada (QC).
