Plumeria reference showing fine stippling, bronzing, or webbingCondition reference
Fine stippling, bronzing, or webbingLook for many tiny pale pinpoints, dull bronzing, fine webbing, eggs, or moving mites beneath the leaf.
Healthy plumeria leaves with even green color, intact margins, and clean upper and lower surfacesHealthy baseline
Healthy leaf comparisonAllow for normal differences in cultivar, leaf age, and sunlight while checking for spreading or structural changes.
  • LocationCheck which plant part, age of growth, and exposed or protected side is affected.
  • TextureDecide whether the evidence is dry, powdery, sticky, raised, translucent, soft, or intact.
  • ProgressionPhotograph the same area so you can tell whether the pattern is stable, improving, or spreading.

Use more than one clue. Confirm the photo with recent conditions, roots, watering history, and the rest of the plant before acting.

Red spider mites is a grower term often used for reddish spider mites rather than one exact species. On plumeria, the phrase usually refers to mite damage with stippling, bronzing, webbing, and tired-looking foliage.
