Sorry doc, she is not an expert as you are, but as she had been
working specifically on this group on higher altitudes, I thought she
might be of help. I have seen her collection of Blumea too. Lets hope
to find the true identity of this soon.

Pankaj

2011-02-09 Thread Yazdy Palia
Nice pictures Mr. Neil,
I have seen the symbiotic relationship between these scale insects and
several varieties of ants. One good way, I found to control these weaver
ants is by encouraging the black cocktail ants to multiply. They too have a
bad sting but not as bad as these weaver ants.
Regards.

The carpels in the fruit are distinct and the habitat is evergreen
