User's notes

I'm not sure if this is some kind of host plant or if its a type of gall. Some of the larger ones had made a ball shape, but the newer ones looked like green 'leaves' with red 'flowers'. never seen anything like this before. It was on a series of young gum trees along the track which were less than 2m tall.

Insect derived galls on E.albens or E.polyanthemos.
