Hi! My name is Gabrielle, and I'm a biology student.

In my internship, I need to identify the pest on these leaves.

I know the tree species is Annona coriacea Mart.

My professor and I believe it might be a type of cochineal/mealybug. If anyone can assist with the identification, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance!
