Interesting
Looks like an agromyzid mine, and all the agromyzid leafminers known from mustards are in Liriomyza; however, based on my somewhat outdated information, this isn't a known host for any of them. It would be interesting to collect some leaves and see what comes out, if you can find any with larvae still in them.

leaf mine
I found about a dozen leaves with leaf miner evidence but no sign of any larvae. I've collected the leaves and have them in a container to see if anything does show up in the next few days.

June 27 - No luck with getting any larva from these leaves.
