Coleophora siccifolia is a moth of the Coleophoridae family. It is found in most of Europe.
The larvae feed on Alnus, Betula lutea, Betula pubescens, Carpinus betulus, Crataegus laevigata, Malus domestica, Sorbus aucuparia and Tilia species. They create a tubular leaf case. It is almost barrel-shaped, with a large leaf fragment that, while withering, folds itself around the tube. Before a larva leaves a mine to start a new one, it often detaches the upper epidermis by cutting along the sides of the mine. The detached epidermis either falls off or dries and curls.[3] Full-grown larvae can be found in August in Great Britain and in October in continental Europe.
