Sounds like mites to me, but make sure before you do anything. Try doing a search on mites. I recently had mites on my Hillier Elms. It was a pretty bad infestation that almost killed all four elms. I was loosing leaves rapidly, And didn't have many left. I made a remidy in the kitchen that worked. I filled up a 1qt spray bottle with water, added 1tbs liquid dishsoap, two garlic cloves, and a pinch of crushed red pepper. I spray'd the leaves and soil every 3days untill there wasn't a sign of the mites. They have'nt returned and my trees have lots of new growth. So, they are doin OK.
