Phyllonorycter agilella is a moth of the family Gracillariidae.[1] It is found in Latvia[2] central Russia , Pyrenees, Italy and Bulgaria and from France to eastern Russia .
Its larvae feed on Ulmus glabra, Ulmus laevis and Ulmus minor, mining the leaves of their host plant. They create a lower-surface (but sometimes upper-surface), weakly folded tentiform mine. The folded side of the mine is whitish. The pupa is created in a very loose cocoon.
