I want to be able to confirm herbivory in some way.

If an insect is just sitting on the plant, that does not necessarily suggest herbivory. It could be visiting flowers. I am not including instances of pollen or nectar feeding because this does not harm the plant.

If it is an adult that only feeds on Conium as a larva, I will not include it.
