Foerster

Notes
Species of
Cynips
excluded from the British and Irish list:
[quercus (Fourcroy, 1785,
Diplolepis
) -a-; syn. pubescentis (Mayr, 1881,
Dryophanta
) -s-] Both generations reported by
Bagnall and Harrison (1918)
,
Bagnall and Harrison (1919)
from several localities in Northumberland and Tyne & Wear, perhaps in error due to confusion with the similar quercusfolii. There are no subsequent records and the species requires confirmation as British.
