Description:

Infested Blue Gum Eucalytptus (Almaden Lake Park) This tree was infested with both lerp psyllids and Australian Tortoise Beetles. You can see at least two psyllids and some lerps in the first photo. The second photo is the tree itself. NOTE: This tree is representative of over 50 eucalyptus trees in this park. I closely inspected 6 of them and found evidence on all of them of chewing damage and lerp psyllid infestation.
