EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by FLPA/Nigel Cattlin, we are transported into the fascinating world of insects. Meet the elusive Golden root mealybug, Chryseococcus arecae! This tiny creature may be small in size but plays a significant role in nature's intricate web. As we zoom in on the photomicrograph, we discover these golden bugs delicately perched on the roots of Corokia macrocarpa and imported New Zealand trees. These soil-dwelling pests have found their cozy homes amidst the vibrant yellow soil. But don't let their innocent appearance fool you - they're part of the Hemiptera family known for causing mischief among plants. The imported mealybugs have decided to infest these unsuspecting trees with their presence! However, let's not forget to appreciate nature's diversity even within its tiniest inhabitants. With their bright yellow bodies contrasting against the dark roots, it almost seems like an artistic masterpiece created by Mother Earth herself. So next time you stumble upon your garden or venture into nature's playground, take a moment to observe these hidden wonders beneath our feet. Who knows what other surprises await us when we delve deeper into this magical realm?
