Hi this is eating a native live oak in San Francisco, and has nearly defoliated the entire large tree. Incidentally, it is causing a lot of mess for the building owner who is really frustrated. I have suggested Bt, but its a really big tree and would probably require professional spray equipment.
I am not sure these are all the same sp., but perhaps you will know.
Thanks for looking.
