Etymology.
Named after the shape of the gall, which has four petiole-like ridges.

In
Dryocosmus quadripetiolus
the mesopleuron is densely setose ventral to the transepisternal line (Fig.

Gall (Fig.
148
): Galls develop from buds, detachable. The body of the gall contains a subglobose part and a needle-like projection; the subglobose part is 5.0-6.0 mm in diameter, 6.0-7.0 in height; the needle-like projection at the top of the gall body nearly as long as or slightly longer than the height of the subglobose part. The gall body is marked with four longitudinal ribs, pubescent. The mature gall is brownish, similar to the color of the twig. The larval chamber is centrally located at the subglobose part, unilocular.

Biology.
Based on the morphology, gall maturation and emergence period of adults, the described females represent the sexual generation. Galls are in buds on
Castanopsis echinocarpa
. Galls were collected in April and adults emerged from galls under laboratory conditions immediately after field collection.
Distribution.
China: Yunnan Province (Lan Cang County).
