ual generation was known to induce galls on axillar buds on young shrubs or regrowth shoots close to the ground on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, and Q. robur (Figs 29a-c). Recently, FOLLlOT (pers. com.) experimentally obtained the bisexual generation, which we named as Andricus hystrix KlEFFER follioti, new form. infectorius (HARTIG, 1843), comb. n. - Synonyms: Cynips infectoria HARTIG, 1843, Cynips tinctoria nostras STEFANI, 1886, nomen nudum, Cynips tinctoria var. nostra KlEFFER 1900-01, Andricus infectoria: BENSON 1953. - According to DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER (1910) the valid name of this species is Andricus infectoria (HARTIG). However, another name, A. tinctoriusnostrus STEFANI has been used by several authors (AMBRUS 1974). STEFANI (1886) gave another name for this species, Cynips tinctoria var. nostras, while stated that it differs from C. tinctoria but without ac­companying this statement with description and/or drawing. KlEFFER (1897-1901) gave the first de­scription of this variety and if we consider it as a species, or, in other words, elevate it to species level, then the valid name must be Andricus nostrus (STEFANI). Thus, Cynips tinctoria nostras STEFANI must be considered as nomen nudum. -BEJERINCK (in DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER 1910) proposed Andricus burgundus GlRAUD as the bisexual generation of A. tinctoriusnostrus (STEFANI) and later a number of researchers followed it (BUHR 1965, AMBRUS 1974a, KlERYCH 1979). However, later the bisexual generation was found and it appeared that A. burgundus was a separate species. - Alternate unisexual and bisexual generations are known. The bisexual generation induces catkin galls on Q. cerris only, while the unisexual generation induces bud galls on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, Q. robur, and Q. farnetto. The bisexual adults emerge in mid-May, the unisexual galls mature in October, the adults overwinter in galls and emerge following spring (Figs 58a-b - bisex. gen., 58c-d - unisex, gen.). inflator HARTIG, 1840-Synonyms: unisexual generation: Cynips inßator RATZEBURG, 1844; bisexual generation: Cynips globuli HARTIG, 1840, Aphilothrix globuli: MAYR 1870, Andricus globuli: M AYR 1882.-Alternate uni-and bisexual generations are known (ADLER 1881). The bisex­ual generation induces galls on either apical or lateral buds of young shoots (Figs 30a-d), the unisex­ual generation produces on shoot tip, sometimes on leaf petiole or the shoot behind the tip on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, Q. robur, and Q. farnetto (Figs 30e-f). kollari (HARTIG, 1843) - Synonyms: unisexual generation: Cynips quercus gemmae CHRIST, 1791, Cynips Kollarii HARTIG, 1843; bisexual generation: Andricus circulons MAYR, 1870. ­KlEFFER (1897-1901) described a new variety, Cynips kollari var. minor, the gall of which has more than one larval chamber what is unusual for the unisexual galls of A. kollari. However, very often galls of A. kollari are attacked by inquiline cynipid wasps of the genus Synergus HARTIG, larvae of which also form a larval chamber. Probably, KlEFFER erroneously took the larval chambers of inquilines as those of gall-inducer. Thus, A. kollari var. minor is a syn. n. of A. kollari. - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known. The bisexual generation induces galls on the apical buds, and less frequently on lateral buds on Q. petraea, Q. robur, and Q. farnetto; less frequently on Q. pubescens (Figs 3ld-f). The unisexual generation induces small tiny galls on the apical buds on Q. cerris only (Figs 31a-c). legitimus WlEBES-RlJKS, 1980 - Synonyms: Andricus glandium (GlRAUD) DU BUYSSON, 1900 (non GlRAUD, 1859) and other misidentifications (WlEBES-RlJKS 1980). - Only the unisexual generation is known to induce inner galls in acorns on Q. robur, like the unisexual galls of Callirhyiis glandium (GlRAUD, 1859). lignicolus (HARTIG, 1840) - Synonyms: unisexual generation: Cynips lignicola HARTIG, 1840, Adleria lignicola: ROHWER & FAGAN 1917, Andricus lignicola: BENSON 1953; bisexual gen­eration: Andricus lignicola HARTIG var. vanheurni DOCTEURS VAN LEEUWEN & DEKHUUZEN-MAASLAND, 1958. - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known (DOCTEURS VAN LEEUWEN & DEKHUUZEN-MAASLAND 1958). Both forms induce bud galls. The gall of the bi-
