User's notes
For the required size field, I'm assuming the inhabitant of the gall is only a few mm long.

There are a half dozen well-developed galls (each a little under a centimetre in diameter) and there appear to be a few more very rudimentary galls (each only a slight swelling with a spine or two) at nearby phyllode-stem junctions.
