I suspect it to be Apricot leaf miner Phyllonorycter sp. Like the apple blotch leaf miner that is known to attack several prunes.
Can anyone help me in the identification of the same?
I am attaching few pics for the identification purpose.
Thanks you very much!
No, it doesn't related miner. Miner worm makes a spiral tunnel between two parachima leaf.
Mostly some kind of fully grown insects make this kind of damage. It sucks the liquid out from the leaf. But it doesn't seem to be a specific pest. You shouldn't worry about this.
I have identified severe infestation of Adoretus sinicus on rose plant and leaf hopper on basil in the same orchard. Adoretus sinicus being nocturnal identified during night and photograph/videograph captured by me.
Peach Silver Mite, Aculus spp and white peach scale, Pseudaulacaspis pentagon were identified from the same peach plant. But it has nothing to do with this type of typical damage we are taking abiut.
Although I have come across similar damage in Apple plant caused by Apple blotch leafminer which is still a close answer.. I will undertake more investigation and will come back with a reliable answer.. Thanks to all
