In this system we find that the gall aphid Pemphigus betae is largely restricted to the mature zones of trees, while the leaf-feeding beetle Chrysomela confluens is largely restricted to juvenile trees and juvenile zones of mature trees (Kearsley and Whitham 1989, Kearsley 1991).

Although higher levels of phenolic glycosides in resprout growth could repel generalist herbivores, here we specifically examine how these plant defenses might attract a specialist insect herbivore, the leaf beetle Chrysomela confluens, which is known to sequester them for its own defense (Kearsley and Whitham 1992).
