Gall Midges of Economic Importance [PDF]
THE gall midges or Cecidomyidse are a family of rather primitive, structurally degenerate Diptera, of very small or minute size. They derive their name from the fact that the majority of species during their larval stages are plant-feeders which induce in their hosts the malformations termed galls or cecidia.
