On leaves of Erythronium americanum, with Vankya heufleri (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/208696306). The coloration is strange and I have no idea what it is. The spheres, viewed under 800x, could burst open and release its content.

davidenriqueDescripción
This observation is for the disease, on Erythronium americanum. All the results of a quick search say that they don't get any diseases. I suspect the beginnings of a rust infection, but I guess I'll have to try to find it again to see how the disease progresses.

jeffdcDescripción
Q alba in abundance at this location. Other white oaks, Q bicolor and Q stellata. There were at least two of these trees separated by ~ 0.5 mile. I could not definitively place the leaves to the tree. In the last photo I think it is the trunk on the right.

kylepdoughertyDescripción
Hovenia dulcis var. koreana, a 42 year old specimen grown from seed collected in South Korea. This tree showcases the wider growing habit and prolific fruiting of the Korean subspecies as described by Nakai(? I'll have to find the paper, I don't have the link to it right now)

Castaño Americano (Castanea dentata)Observ.
conboyDescripción
I would estimate it was about 45' - 50' tall and it was flowering!
There are at least two large C. dentata individuals here, and what appears to be a root sprout from this tree.
I'm not aware if anyone is collecting these nuts, if they're produced, or if this tree is on any scientist's radar.

kdffDescripción
Update: Now that I've been exposed a little more to the effects of phytoplasmas, the more I'm wondering if that's what's going on here. I saw several mentions of A. altissima in phytoplasma discussions--particularly in grapevine diseases--but found nothing that would lead to an ID here.

tgregory74Descripción
Unsure of species. When I keyed this out with Jones' plant life of Kentucky, I ended up with C. crus-galli, but the leaf shape doesn't match up with that species. I can revisit in the fall with fruit characteristics to help further narrow down the ID
