  • Photo title: Insect Gall Wrapped in a Brown Leaf Hanging from a Branch
  • Author: Lindalombardo
  • Cover photo description:
  • Galls are abnormal plant growths caused by insects, mites, nematodes, fungi, bacteria and viruses. They usually form during the accelerated growth period of new leaves, shoots and flowers in late spring. In this photo, you can see the brown leaf still attached to its branch and some of the leaf's veins. The gall was about the size of a golf ball and probably caused by a parasitic wasp, perhaps Amphibolips confluenta. After an egg has been laid in a leaf secretes a substance that causes the leaf to grow as a round papery home for the larva The larva feeds on the inside of the gall and emerges upon maturing into an adult wasp
