User's notes

there were two leaf beetle species on this little gum. This beetle had two the same size and similar colour (the second one had more pale yellow in the face). They were not sitting together. There were eggs round and round a twiglet and about 8 larva very tiny sitting together but not sure which species they belonged to.
