Biology
The caterpillars feed on Phillyrea angustifolia and Phillyrea latifolia. They initially mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a narrow, full depth corridor, lined with silk. The mine often follows a vein for a long time. Most frass is ejected out of the mine. Pupation takes place outside of the mine.[1] After overwintering in the larval stage, the larvae live freely in a rolled leaf.

gollark: I was going to say that "magic is magic mostly because we can't really do it in reality", but actually there is fiction where magic does approximately the same things as what modern tech does but with a slightly different aesthetic.
gollark: I'm sure there are others, I just can't immediately think of any.
gollark: Um. I have never actually *read* it but apparently Robert Jackson Bennet's *Foundryside* has a programmingish magic system?
gollark: I'm sure this has been done, depending on how strictly you define it.
