Trioza adventicia, commonly known as the syzygium leaf psyllid, lillypilly psyllid, or eugenia psyllid, is a sap-sucking hemipteran bug in the family Triozidae which creates galls on the leaves of Syzygium paniculatum. This species is native to eastern Australia and has been introduced into California, southern Australia, and New Zealand. The nymphs form pit galls in the leaves and stunt the plant's growth.
