A little bit more from Jason: Box Mistletoe Amyema miquelii is a parasitic plant that grows on Eucalyptus trees. The Red Spotted Jezebel Butterfly Delias aganippe breed on mistletoe plants. Male butterflies patrol around, waiting for the arrival of newly emerged females so they can mate with them. Eggs are laid in clusters and when hatched the caterpillars feed on mistletoe leaves.
