Populus1 Populus2 Populus3
[1-3] on the caldera rim of Mount Usu. [1/2] many poplar saplings damaged by insect herbivores. Leaves were completely withered owing to the herbivory. However, this tree was alive in the next year. Great! The two photos were taken on July 27 1995 (Haruki & Tsuyuzaki 2001).
