Melika, G., Csóka, Gy. ; Pujade-Villar, J.: Check-list of oak gall wasps of Hungary, with some taxonomic notes (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae, Cynipinae, Cinipini)

sexual generation is associated with Q. cerris only, while the gall of the unisexual generation develops on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, Q. robur and Q. farnetto (Figs 32a-c). lucidus (HARTIG, 1843)-Synonyms: Cynipslucida HARTIG, 1843, Aphilothrix lucida: MAYR 1870, Andricus lucidus: MAYR 1882, Adleria lucidus: ROHWER & FAGAN 1917. - KlEFFER (1897-1901) described a subspecies, A. lucidus erinaceus, which has similar but smaller galls. It is impossible to distinguish females of A. lucidus erinaceus from A. lucidus on the basis of characters given in the original description (KlEFFER 1897-1901) including the variation in the number of antennái flagellomeres. Moreover, on the same tree A. lucidus galls of normal and much smaller sizes can be found. We consider, Andricus lucidus erinaceus as a syn. n. of A. lucidus. - Only the unisexual generation is known to induce galls on buds, occasionally on acorns on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, Q. robur, and Q. farnetto (Figs 33a-c). malpighii (ADLER, 1881) - Synonyms: unisexual generation: Aphilothrix malpighii ADLER, 1881 Andricus malpighii: MAYR 1882; bisexual generation: Andricus nudus ADLER, 1881. - Earlier, the valid name of this species was Andricus nudus. Recently, PUJADE-VILLAR & MELIKA (2000, in print) changed the valid name of this species to Andricus malpighii. - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known (ADLER 1881). The bisexual generation induces galls on lateral buds or at the tip of summer shoots (Fig. 34b), the unisexual generation produces catkin galls, mainly on Q. petraea and Q. robur, rarely on Q. pubescens (Fig. 34a). mayri (WACHTL, 1879) - Synonyms: Aphilothrix mayri WACHTL, 1879, Andricus mayri: MAYR 1882. - According to the original description of Andricus mayri, this species induces galls on oak catkins and is distributed in Central Europe. KlEFFER (1897-1901) described a similar species (Andricus panteli) with a circummediterranean distribution. Andricus panteli (KlEFFER) adults and galls are larger in size, and galls develop in buds. TROTTER (1899) described a variety, Andricus panteli var. fructuum, the gall of which develops on acorn cups, later DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER (1910) considered this variety as a subspecies of Andricus panteli. TAVARES (1922) thought Andricus panteli as a subspecies of Andricus mayri (Andricus mayri panteli) and described a new subspecies (Andricus mayri intermedins). According to the examined Hungarian material (GM & GC) A. mayri induces galls on acorns and/or catkins on Q. petraea, Q. robur, Q. pubescens, and Q. farnetto while in the Iberian Peninsula (JP-V) galls develop in buds and rarely in acorns (never on catkins). Probably all these forms are the same species but the peculiarities of Andricus unisexual forms make us cautious and we consider the Central European form, Andricus mayri (WACHTL) and the Circummediterranean form, Andricus panteli KlEFFER as different species until their life cycles will be closed. Thus, the next subspecies are synonyms of A. panteli: Andricus panteli var. fructuum TROTTER, 1899, syn. n., Andricus panteli panteli DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER, 1910, syn. n., Andricus mayri panteli TAVARES, 1922, syn. n., Andricus mayri intermedins TAVARES, 1902, syn. n.. - Only the unisexual generation is known (Figs 35a-b). mitralus (MAYR, 1870) - Synonyms: Cynips glutinosa var. mitrata MAYR, 1870, Cynips mitrata: KlEFFER 1897-1901, Adleria mitrata: ROHWER & FAGAN 1917, Andricus mitrata: BENSON 1953 - Only the unisexual generation is known to induce galls on lateral buds of shoots on Q. petraea, and Q. pubescens, rarely on Q. robur (Figs 36a-c). multiplicatus GlRAUD, 1859. - Only the bisexual generation is known to induce bud galls, usually at shoot tips on Q. cerris only (Figs 37a-c). paradoxus (RADOSZKOWSKI, 1866) - Synonyms: unisexual generation: Cynips gallae triticiformis ANTHOINE, 1794, Manderstjernia paradoxa RADOSZKOWSKI, 1866, Andricus paradoxus: BUHR 1965, Cynips majális GlRAUD, 1868 (non BASSET, 1864), Cynips albopunctata SCHLECHTENDAL, 1870, Aphilothrix albopunctata: MAYR 1870, Cynips albipuncta: KALTENBACH 1874; bisexual generation: Andricus albopunctatus forma barbotini FOLLlOT, 1964. - Andricus Lambert oni KlEFFER, 1897 is a syn. n. GM examined the type of A. lambertoni loaned from MNHP.
