Scales??

Richmond Hill, York Region, Ontario, Canada
June 17, 2007
Size: 1 mm max.

These have invested my English Oaks (Quercus robur) for many years, but I've never photographed them until now. My first thought was some sort of scale, and these probably are, but I'm not entirely sure of that. Can't seem to find them in the Guide either. Some help, please?
