Numerous bright red leaf galls causing twisting of this eucalyptus leaf. Infestation was on two leaves only.
Thanks John.I've removed that suggestion.
Hi MartinThese are probably not cynipids (which are mainly Northern Hemisphere - at least the gall forming ones). Lots of other things induce galls on Eucalyptus in Australia.
Thnks leuba, I've put it back in front.
