Larva A maggot up to 3.25 mm in length. First-instar larvae are colourless on hatching, turning pale yellow-orange. Later instars are yellow-orange. The ratio of the cephalopharyngeal skeletons between the first and second instars is 1.80 and between the second and third instars is 1.47 (Head et al., 2002). The posterior spiracle forms a crescent with six to nine mounted pores. Pupae The puparium is oval, slightly flattened ventrally, 1.3-2.3 × 0.5-0.75 mm, with variable colour from light brown to almost black. Adult Small, greyish-black, compact-bodied, 1.3-2.3 mm in body length, 1.3-2.3 mm in wing length. Females are slightly larger than males. In general, any agromyzid of this size with a bright yellow central area of the scutellum and bright yellow areas of the head and pleura, belongs to the genus Liriomyza. The subfamily Phytomyzinae has vein Sc becoming a fold distally, but not coalescing with vein R1 before reaching C; the genus Liriomyza has orbital setulae which are not proclinate (they may be reclinate or absent); 2 pairs orbital setae; C extending to M, which end in wing apex; cross vein DM-Cu present; scutellum yellow. L. huidobrensis may be distinguished from other Liriomyza species by the head and leg yellow parts being a darker orange-yellow, the third antennal segments very dark, sometimes almost black on top, and the mesoplura is largely black. The overall appearance is of a small dark fly. Distribution Top of page L. huidobrensis originates in Central and South America and was absent from other continents until the 1980s. It was first detected in Europe in 1987 in the Netherlands where it was found on glasshouse lettuces; it is presumed to have been imported directly from South America. It has since spread considerably in Europe and especially the Mediterranean region, but particularly significant is the spread in central and eastern Europe where climatic conditions would be expected to deter its presence. The pest previously believed to be pea leaf miner in the USA is actually Liriomyza langei (NAPPO, 2009). L. huidobrensis has been intercepted, but is not established in Australia. There are also reports from Italy, Guam, Comoros, Seychelles, Morocco, Syria, Java (east and west) and Korea. Records for the Canary Islands, Spain and French Guiana (IIE, 1995) have not been confirmed.
