Asterodiaspis ilicicola or cochineal of the oaks

[frfmfrfm]

Good evening, Asterodiaspis ilicicola in the leaves of Quercus sp.
Sierra Norte de Sevilla, Spain.

i Hola, Francisco !

Thank You for the interesting pictures!

This should be the Golden Oak Scale - Eichenpockenschildlaus - on the leaves of a Kermes Oak (Kermes-Eiche or Stech-Eiche - Quercus coccifera, Syn.: Quercus pseudococcifera Labill.)
For the oak I am not shure. The genus Quercus has many species with stinged leaves.

Best regards
Jörg

Thanks Jörg.
The species is Quercus ilex Quercus think when young.
Quercus ilex leaves and underside with beautiful young state prongs.
Quercus coccifera no hairs.
Regards, Francisco.

Good evening, looking Asterodiaspis ilicicola appears mite.





Best regards, Francisco.

i Hola, Francisco !

oh, this little guy seems to share the habitat with the Golden Oak Scale. 
The mite really is a dwarf compared with the big Oak Scales.
In German it is called a "Milbe" - but I do not know the genus.

Best regards
Jörg

Halo Francisco,

the shown mite is a spider mite (Tetranychidae), most likely Tetranychus urticae. Seems to be a young male.

Best regards
Oliver
