Stem-miner:A
narrow, whitish external stem mine. Pupation external (Spencer,
1976: 312).
Larva: The larvae of flies are leg-less maggots without a head capsule (see examples). They never have thoracic or abdominal legs. They do not have chewing mouthparts, although they do have a characteristic cephalo-pharyngeal skeleton (see examples), usually visible internally through the body wall.
Puparium:
The puparia of flies are formed within the hardened last larval skin or puparium and as a result sheaths enclosing head appendages, wings and legs are not visible externally (see examples).
Reddish brown; posterior spiracles each have 3 bulbs (Spencer,
1976: 312).
Comments:
Galium mollugo is treated
as Galium album (Hedge
Bedstraw) by Stace (2010).
