Comments.
The original description includes the information that the gall was found on
Carex acuta
in the collection of Rosenhauer, somewhat similar to that of
Planetella fischeri
(as
Hormomyia fischeri
). Very similar galls are said to be induced on different host plant species by related species. It is also stated there that there are similar galls on
Carex arenaria
and
C. rostrata
in the herbarium of prof.
P. Magnus
.The larvae taken from the galls are reported as quite different. The adult female is described as having antennae with 2 + 20 segments. Unrecognized species.
RȖBsAAMEN (1917) created a separate genus for this species,
Paurosphondylus
, stating that it has all the flagellomeres uninodal. Most probably, he meant only the females, because no male specimen is present in the
type
series.
