How interesting, thankyou. I don't remember noticing another gall close-by but I was pretty distracted after finding this one!

This is wonderful! I think you should move it to the Arthropods category.

This is a male eriococcid gall but I love your name for it. You will probably find another larger female gall nearby looking like this http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/934... or this
