Heterotrioza chenopodii - Teneral imago During our holiday I had taken a leaf of a plant because there was a leaf mine in it. When I checked a few days later I noticed this adult Psyllid and on closer inspection some tiny nymphs as well. I don&#039;t think these were related to the mine, but still a nice docu. <br /> Being that the picture below shows the only exuviae is saw on the leaf I&#039;m suggesting that this teneral imago came from that:<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/107379/heterotrioza_chenopodii_-_exuviae.html" title="Heterotrioza chenopodii - Exuviae"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/3043/107379_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=COYoGwkQ%2BXg67oj6HQSzG1xw2Q4%3D" width="200" height="114" alt="Heterotrioza chenopodii - Exuviae Probably the exuviae of this teneral imago:<br /> https://www.jungledragon.com/image/107378/heterotrioza_chenopodii_-_teneral_imago.html<br /> Geotagged,Heterotrioza,Heterotrioza chenopodii,La Palma (Canary Islands),Nymph,Psylloidea,Spain,Triozidae" /></a></figure><br /> Close-up of 5th stadium nymph:<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/107290/heterotrioza_chenopodii_-_nymph.html" title="Heterotrioza chenopodii - Nymph"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/3043/107290_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=skv1zbjpb30YFsbV8pKwoi0EtgY%3D" width="200" height="114" alt="Heterotrioza chenopodii - Nymph Fifth/last stadium nymph.

Heterotrioza chenopodii - Teneral imago

During our holiday I had taken a leaf of a plant because there was a leaf mine in it. When I checked a few days later I noticed this adult Psyllid and on closer inspection some tiny nymphs as well. I don't think these were related to the mine, but still a nice docu.
Being that the picture below shows the only exuviae is saw on the leaf I'm suggesting that this teneral imago came from that:
