Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.The gall forming herbivores Lophodiplosis trifida and L. indentata reduced the growth of M. quinquenervia, with L. trifida exerting a stronger suppressive effect than L. indentata. The addition of L. trifida enhanced the negative impact of L. indentata on plant growth, whereas the presence of L. indentata did not affect the impacts of L. trifida.
