Leaf mine - Phytomyza Leaf mine

Really need to see more of the plant
But I'd say either some kind of Buttercup (Ranunculus) or something in the Umbelliferae.

 
Agreed
Whether Ranunculaceae or Apiaceae this mine was made by something in the genus Phytomyza, but I wasn't sure which of the two and would need to know the plant genus to say more.
