We quantified previously unstudied tritrophic gall communities on Fagaceae in Sichuan, China, testing for ‘bottom‐up’ effects of host plant diversity on plant–herbivore and plant–parasitoid interactions. We sampled 176 cynipid gall morphotypes from 23 host plant species, yielding 64 parasitoid morphospecies.

During 2014-2016, damage by the oriental chestnut gall wasp Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae) was found on sweet chestnut trees at 4 localities in Slovakia. Dryocosmus kuriphilus is a specific plant pest on Castanea spp.

Monitoring invertebrates in cereal fields in southern England over 50 years (1970–2019) showed an overall decline in abundance. For taxa at the order/family level, 47% declined in abundance, 16% increased and 37% showed no change. Most functional groups declined, expect for pollinators—whose abundance did not change overall.

Synergus brevis (Weld, 1962), una nova sinonímia de S. mexicanus Gillette, 1896 (Hym., Cynipidae: Synergini) [PDF]
Espècie originalment descrita en el gènere Saphonecrus Dalla Torre & Kieffer, 1910, atès que tenia la cel·la radial oberta (Weld, 1926), ha estat recentment transferida al gènere Synergus Hartig, 1840 per Schwéger et al. (2015)

We found differences in parasitism rates and gall size between D. rosae populations in North America (Nearctic) and Europe (Western Palearctic). While North American populations have lower parasitism rates, suggesting decreased pressure from natural enemies, they also exhibit significantly larger gall sizes compared with their European counterparts ...

Gene expression in the galls induced by the sexual and asexual generation of N. quercusbaccarum and N. numismalis are more similar to each other than the alternate generation of the same species. Abstract Oak gall wasps have evolved strategies to manipulate the developmental pathways of their host to induce gall formation.

Are Callirhytid erythrostoma (Dettmer, 1933) and C. erythrosoma (Dettmer, 1933) synonyms of Callirhytis erythrocephala (Giraud, 1859) or different species? (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Cynipini) [PDF]
Un nou cicle heteroècic de cinípid ha estat tancat experimentalment: Callirhytis erythrocephala (Giraud, 1859) (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae: Cynipini). Callirhytis hartigi Förster, 1869 és una syn. nov. de C. erythrocephala.

The larvae of the swede midge, Contarinia nasturtii (Kieffer) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), feed on the meristem of brassica crops, resulting in galls that disrupt seed and vegetable production. The salivary gland and midgut transcriptomes of third instar larvae were examined, providing evidence for cooperative extra‐oral and gastrointestinal digestion ...

Dryocosmus kuriphilus (Hymenoptera cynipidae) in Sardegna
The chestnut gall wasp Dryocosmus kuriphilus was detected in Sardinia in 2007. Two years later its biological control agent, Torymus sinensis, was released and was started the monitoring of native oak gall wasp parasitoids recruited by D. kuriphilus. Five years after its introduction the exotic parasitoid T.
