When disturbed they react by arching there head and wiggling there tail. ) This stops the draughts and maintains humidity. As the spots enlarge they turn greyish with black fruiting bodies in the centre, then become brown and killing the affected areas. ) Leaves: Blue-green or grey-green, obovate, blunt or with a tiny point at the Level 1. adult female moth is grey wings that are white striped and produces a black larva with yellow stripes. This is the same fungus that causes Damping-off. This is a major economic pest for cultivated trees. Gregarious larvae Acer, Betula, Quercus and Populus species are susceptible to the Forest Tent Caterpillar. They are appear on both sides of the leaves causing the surrounding area to turn pale yellow then brown and the black spores appear soon after, overwintering on dead infected leaves. The larva nest in the host plant or at the base and normally feed at night. columbianus) which is regarded as a sub-species of the Mule deer. Leptospermum laevigatum can be easily trained into different forms. It is suitable for hedging or as a screen plant, tolerates frosts down to minus 7 deg C (10F) and is very resistant to salt spray. It commonly appears along the beaches in dunes or in the adjoining hillsides amongst dry sclerophyll forests from sea level to an altitude of 760m (2,493 ft) or more. This is an opportunity to collect them on a piece of plastic if it is spread around the plant. species are infected by several fungi that cause. However parasitic types such as powdery mildew or rust are visible on the outer surface of the plant. Plants that are infected with a systemic form should be removed and destroyed. Mix the fine seed with washed sand and then sow thinly on the surface. These cuttings are taken from wood that is firmer and semi ripe usually during mid summer. The seed may vary in structure and the cotyledons may be small or large. Adults may live for up to a year, this varies for the species concerned. It appears banded in reddish brown stiff hairs that are long and irritate skin on contact. The Whitetail on average grows to 112 cm (44in) tall and 180 mm (70 in) long and weigh 68 kgs (150lbs).

Sorbus aucuparia is affected by several rust from the (Gymnosporangium species) causing circular yellow spots, that appear on the leaves during summer and develop into orange cup-shaped fruiting bodies. Equal parts of sand and peat moss have good results for cuttings, which are left for a period of time to allow the roots to form. Heavily infected leaves become yellow and drop prematurely. The floral tube covers the ovary and may continue above the ovary summit and form a disk around the ovary. They are distributed by flying to a new host plant. Eggs are laid in cracks in the bark of the host, upon which the mature larvae pupates. These cuttings are taken from mature wood normally towards the end of the season. Canna species may be infected by the rust (Puccinia Thaliae). It deposits oval eggs that are tiny 0.50mm wide normally deposited in the leaf axil and change colour from white to red in the first 12 hours. LEPTOSPERMUM lanigerum. TREE CHARACTERISTICS. Leptospermum laevigatum has been planted along the Central Coast of California to stabilise sand where it is known as the Australian Tea Tree, but has now become a weed. The insect is called a "sawfly" because of the sawing action of the ovipositor. Blue-green or grey-green, elliptical foliage 1-3 cm long with new growth having silky hairs. This plant can be trained as a bonsai subject. Generally they are made up of branched threads called ', ' and collectively form a vegetative body called '. Hedera species are susceptible to several Fungal Leaf Spots including (Glomerella cingulate), (Phyllosticta concentrica) and (Ramularia hedericola). In some species the females are wingless, or have greatly reduced wings. Deposited bead-like eggs hatch in 10 days and the emerging lava feed on the leaves of Turf Grass. It is a sporadic pest that appears from late summer to autumn. No practical chemical control of the larvae is available. All photographs and data are covered by copyright. This fungal problem forms a firm brown rot that appears on the leaves, pseudobulbs and rhizomes. Clustering larvae may be hosed or knocked from branches, falling to the ground where they can be squashed under foot or attacked by other predators. Examples are Begonia, Boronia, Camellia, Cyclamen, Fuchsia, Gerbera, Grevillea, Impatiens, Pansy, Petunia, Rosa species and Snapdragon. Young plants may be killed. This pest can be found on Eucalyptus and Leptospermum species, it may also attack palms from sub tropical to tropical regions. The leaf shrivels then dies and infected areas appear as weak patches in the turf. The larvae can live for up to two years. These cuttings should be 50 to 75 mm long and placed vertically in a well-drained sand media. On the underside of the leaf, corresponding to the patches, yellow orange spores form. There are many species of Jewel beetles and generally have flat and elongated bodies with metallic, iridescent-patterned shells in orange red or yellow. Twigs and small branches are attacked and the larvae causes ring bark. The exudate causes most birds to avoid the larva, although cockatoos remove the head and oil gland prior to consumption. Infested leaves become brown in patches, fall prematurely and shoots may die back as a result of not being hardened off to the elements. These invasive species succeed in bushland due to their vigorous growth and tolerance of difficult conditions. The yellow spores at the epidermal layer through wounds and germinate on mass causing the area to become soft and spongy. After the eggs hatch the larvae shelter in the shallow tunnels they create in the wood, up to 60mm deep. an egg, larval, pupal and adult stage, A wide range of plants are attacked by these moths and. hotbed is a useful item as many plants root more quickly if the media is slightly warmer. It has small grey-green oblong leaves and the white wheel-shaped flowers appear in early spring. If growth seems slow or you think the tree needs fertilizer, apply a light application of a water-soluble fertilizer every month during the growing season, using a solution of no more than teaspoon (2.5 ml.) Leaf Case Moth (Hyalarcta huebneri) constructs a short cocoon that has a ragged appearance and is covered in leaf and bark pieces. drop to the ground and pretend to be dead. The infected area develops minute black fruiting bodies. Common fungi are mould and mildews. The mature leaves are first affected and eventually the stems or cains rot and die. It has thin, rough bark on the older stems, narrow egg-shaped leaves, relatively large white flowers and flat topped fruit that is shed shortly after reaching . Source: Anpsa.org.au.

Fill the container to 20 mm from the top and sprinkle sieved peat to 3 mm depth. Damaged branches may be removed, or tunnels plugged. Seedling production normally occurs in a greenhouse / glasshouse, cold frames and on hot beds. It has a large representation in the Australian landscape. Leptospermum typically produce solitary flowers, or in small groups of 2s and 3s or more, within the leaf axils. Larvae emerge from their tunnels at night, to feed on the callus tissue around the entrance holes. are of great benefit to cuttings as the regulated fogging with water inhibits the cuttings from drying out and as a result the cuttings may be grown in full sun. ) The source of the fungus is from other infected plants or fallen leaves and is dispersed by wind. Wilt (Ceratocystis fagacearum) causes leaves to curl then turn brown and the sap wood may also turn brown or black. Dutch Elm Disease is transmitted by bark beetles such as (Scolytus multistriatus) and (Hylurgopinus rufipes). Spring Dead Spot (Leptosphaeri species) is a fungal disease that infects Couch Grass.
