Con can you remember what plant this gall was on?

Very likely it was Blakelyi. (I have been checking for Gang gangs and there are occasional overflights (high, direct between BMNR and the suburbs, and by singletons) but no activity in Caladenia Forest.)

These woody 'galls' are difficult to interpret and may not be insect induced, I have cut some open and found nothing.

Thanks Roger i will leave it as 'insect" until it can be more conclusively IDed if ever - otherwise it will be lost in the inconclusive list
