Psyllids emerging

Schedotrioza sp.

Description:

Two winged psyllids emerged from a gall cluster in pic four. I contained them in a jar to assure the same species. Pic#3 shows a brown form which may represent sexual dimorphism (female?). The same two nymphs are seen in pics #5 and #6

Habitat:

A large heavily infested eucalyptus tree in a suburban reserve

Notes:

These differ a bit from a previous spotting at the same location http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/144...
