Field Notes

Description:

The first two photos are of dry galls, but the last photo is green and probably fresher. The insect may still be alive within it.

Habitat:

Churchill National Park. Spotted on an eucalyptus tree.

Notes:

Help, Leuba... Is this also a Four-horned gumtree gall
Apiomorpha munita?
