Schedotrioza apicobystra galls on a eucalyptus tree- Eucalyptus camaldulensis. Old and young galls,induced by psyllids.<br />
Psyllids are tiny sap-sucking insects that feed on the nutrient rich liquids inside leaves and transport tissues (xylem &amp; phloem). Most species of psyllid will only feed on one specific host plant, however some species are known to broaden their preferences to plant varieties within the same family.
