Western american alder tongue gall forms unique deformities on the leaves of alder trees, creating structures that resemble tongues. These leaf protrusions result from the fungus infecting the tree tissues, causing the leaves to develop abnormally. This process is not just a visual change but part of the fungus's reproductive cycle, important for its spread and lifecycle.
