[MAIPC] Ailanthus Herbivory

[Richard Gardner]

 That is not Ailanthus because the compound leaf is not odd pinnate, the notches are wrong and it is too rough.

 The most likely one seemed to be the mite, except it's also called "leaf curl mite" not "patterned hole mite" so I'm still at a loss as to what could do such a distinctive look on all the leaves. Obviously it's not deer, and the moths seemed wrong too based on what little imagery I could find and general knowledge of feeding behavior (which I realize there must be more exceptions than moths I know)
