Coptotriche heinemanni is a moth of the family Tischeriidae. It is found in most of Europe, except the Iberian Peninsula and the Balkan Peninsula.

Damage

The wingspan is 8–9.5 mm.[2]

The larvae feed on Agrimonia eupatoria, Agrimonia procera, Rubus caesius, Rubus fruticosus, Rubus idaeus and Rubus laciniatus. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a large, transparent, upper-surface blotch. The frass is ejected through a small opening in the underside of the mine. Pupation takes place within the mine after hibernation.[3] Larvae can be found from September to October.
