The young sap-feeding larva forms a linear white mine.Later the larva expands the mine and spins silk extensively in the interior (on the eroded inner surface of the leaf underside), causing the leaf to fold (Hoare et al. 2019: 50). Teucrium parvifolium (Lamiaceae), which is endemic to New Zealand and was until recently placed in its own monotypic genus Teucridium, and in the family Verbenaceae. Salmaki et al. (2016) showed that Teucridium belongs to Lamiaceae and is phylogenetically nested within the large worldwide genus Teucrium (Hoare et al. 2019: 48).
