Scribbly gum bark

Dharawal National Park, New South Wales, Australia

 

The 'scribbles' on the bark of these trees are made by the larvae of tiny moths, which burrow under the bark. Like many eucalypts, scribbly-gums lose their old bark each year, and when they do so the trails of the larvae can be seen.
