Galls and Leaf Rollers in Great Smoky Mountains National Park Dylan Jenkins

Galls abundant in the Smokies found on a variety of plant species caused by insects, mites, fungi, bacteria Project Objectives Finding out what plants the galls are on, where there at, and what is inside.

Results

Summary Collected data on galls and leaf rollers on nine different plants successfully reared a fern roller to pupa (now in rearing box ) still nets out on active galls
