I just discovered these the other day on my beach plums, but profuse, some leaves solid with them. I just looked thru two different disease books & didn't find them.

Thanks Hal for the suggestion but no, they do not look like the photo link.
They are more elongated and pointed like spikes and have a reddish
appearance which when magnified show streaks of red on green. They are
fewer in number and do not seem to penetrate the leaf but merely sit
attached to the surface.

Sounds like phylloxera galls, although they are usually on the underside
of the leaves. The leaf galls are usually not a problem on Catawba, which
is only mildly susceptible.
Did they look like this?

My Catawba grape vine appears to be healthy but new leaves have 1/2cm
long vertical soft budlike attachments on the upper surface. Looking
through a loupe they appear green with red streaks. I cut one open to
find that it is hollow inside. No insect activity is apparent. I have
looked through some books including "The Grape Grower" and cannot find any
such description. I am located in SW Tennessee. Does anyone have any
thoughts on what they might be and any suggestions of what if anything I
should do? If they are harmful I would like to control them with the
least toxic means. If they are beneficial I would like to encourage them.
