Collecting Agromyzids

Although agromyzids can be collected by sweepnetting or in Malaise traps, the best way to collect agromyzids is by rearing the larvae or pupae from their host plants. This provides inforamtion on not only the host plant, but also on the feeding mode and location, mine pattern if a leafminer, larval/pupal morphology, and parasitoids as well.
