      A theoretical explanation is given for the shape of the incisions on the birch leaf cut by the birch leaf roller (Deporaus betulae). The theoretical predictions for the incisions agree well with the real patterns. The previous view that the leaf cone construction is determined by the principle of optimal cost is refuted.
