There are two spots defined on NatureMapr for this species Glycaspis brimblecombei and Glycaspis (Glycaspis) brimblecombei. I don't understand the mening of the genus being repeated in brackets but I know it is a common practice. The name in brackets causes problems when searching for this species because the search does not return that name. It only shows up when you only type in just the genus. Hmm...
Psyllidae sp. (family)

I saw your list and noted that A. campestre was pre-Canberra. Lindsay Pryor's book 'Trees in Canberra' lists Pistachia chinensis for Hartog St Griffith; there is at least one left but the others must have been replaced with A. capestre and A. monspessulanum some time between 1960 and 2001 (which is the date for my other list of trees).

Thanks Mike, for my PhD I collated all woody ornamental exotic planting records in Canberra up to 1980. I found records of 21 different species of Acer being planted in Canberra of which Acer campestre was ranked 13th in terms of abundance of plantings. Acer Campestre is the best fit of the 21 species for this sighting and I am therefor happy to identify it as such

That's a good idea. I can empty the plastic bags that people discard in the park when no-one is watching.
