Phylloxeras

Phlloxera are tiny, yellowish insects that suck sap from the underside of leaves, particularly on oak species, producing tiny, irregular brown and yellow spots. Damage is primarily aesthetic and is not serious. Either tolerate this pest or apply insecticidal soap to the Underside of affected leaves before they become severely spotted.
