on Solidago chapmanii

On Euthamia caroliniana

Host: Eurybia divaricata

Asphondylia sp. Frostburg State University Arboretum, Frostburg, Maryland, USA.

Host is Solidago rugosa I think? Not sure if this is herbicide damage or a gall.

S rugosa

@ddennism states "Dorchin et al. (2009) associated these fuzzy clusters on S. fistulosa with an undescribed member of this genus."

Guessing

Terminal cluster on Solidago altissima

Gall on Solidago velutina

Goldenrod at the edge of the woods.

I have photos at the end of the slide showcasing how I initially found the flowers positioned before moving them to get a better look.

Fantastic linear gall on Gutierrezia sarothrae flower head! Ridged surface, pinkish coloration.
