Skeletonweed gall midge

Cystiphora schmidti: Larval feeding causes gall formation on leaves and stems.

Skeletonweed gall mite

Eriophyes chondrillae: This mite causes gall tissue to form on shoots and buds. Very effective for reducing seed production and killing young plants.

Skeletonweed rust

Puccinia chondrillina: This rust causes stunting, desiccation and other stress induced problems for the host plant. Seedling plants are often killed.

All three organisms are provided in a bouquet of infected plants.
