We collected oak leaves occurring in two mountains: Jirisan Mountain on the mainland of Korea (12 September 2015) and Hallasan Mountain on Jejudo Island (21 September 2015). From three randomly-chosen trees, we sampled six branches with breast height with all leaves attached. Feeding traces associated with feeding activities of insects and mites on the leaves were recorded.
