Host plants Portugal. Myrtaceae: Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh. (Valente & Hodkinson 2009; Bella 2013; Dhahri et al. 2014), E. cypellocarpa F.Muell., E. grandis W.Hill, E. macarthurii H.Deane & Maiden, E. nicholii Maiden & Blakely, E. nitens (H.Deane & Maiden) Maiden, E. ovata Labill., E. pauciflora Sieber, E. pilularis Sm., E. propinqua Deane & Maiden, E. pulverulenta Sims, E. regnans F.Muell., E. resinifera Sm., E. rudis Endl., E. sideroxylon A.Cunn. ex Woolls, E. tereticornis Smith, E. viminalis Labill. (Dhahri et al. 2014) .

Dhahri et al. (2014) evaluated the susceptibility of various Eucalyptus spp. to attack by G. brimblecombei in a survey carried out in a eucalypt arboretum in Lisbon in 2012. The authors showed that E. camaldulensis, E. ovata and E. tereticornis were highly susceptible (with 40.4% to 68.4% of leaves attacked) while E. cypellocarpa, E. grandis, E. marcarthurii, E. nicholii, E. nitens, E. pauciflora, E. pilularis, E. propinqua, E. pulverulenta, E. regnans, E. resinifera, E. rudis, E. sideroxylon and E. viminalis were considered moderately to barely susceptible (ranging from 26.9% to 0.6% attacked leaves). Another 13 species ( E. botryoides, E. cinerea, E. citriodora, E. creba, E. globulus, E. goniocalyx, E. maculata, E. meliodora, E. occidentalis, E. perriniana, E. polyanthemos, E. robusta and E. saligna) were resistant to attack by Glyscaspis brimblecombei .

Parasitoids. Dhahri et al. (2014) reported the presence of the parasitoid Psyllaephagus bliteus Riek ( Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) for the first time in mainland Portugal.
