diameters sometimes separated sometimes united in clusters

The link wouldn't work for me for some reason, but judging by the
description it could possibly be azalea lace but.

HI
I'll try to make some more neat it looks like as
Check under the leaves and if you see small "fly" type insects, whose wings
look almost like lacework (and seethrough) that would be lace bug.


heer they are teh new pics
in teh second one a smal bug is vivsible I could see only when teh pic
was made not before
might be it teh responsible of tehse spots
no flies under the leaves

If so you can spray with a systemic insecticide. I know Rogor is one here in
Australia, you may have it over there. If not ask at a nursery. Just watch
it as it is pretty potent to humans. The leaves will not recover if it's
lace bug, and it may loose affected foliage, but it will come back.
Good luck

ok I'll what I have in my chemistry mut have quite a few and one will do
since last year that we had terrific heat wave in Switzerland a lot
of bugs come out in spring my maples look horrid
Thanks again for all informations
