Dialectica scalariella
The echium leaf miner (Dialectica scalariella) is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is found from France to the Iberian Peninsula, Italy and the Balkan Peninsula. Recently an imago was found in Great Britain. It was introduced in Australia for the biological control of the weed Echium plantagineum and has since spread to New Zealand.
