singularis MAYR, 1870, comb. rev. Originally MAYR (1870) described this species as Andricus singularis. Later, MAYR ( 1881 ) gave another name for this species, Andricus singulus, because in his opinion, the name singularis' was preoccupied by BASSETT (1863) for Cynips quercus singularis described from North America. Soon, OSTEN SACKEN (1865) renamed this species into Cynips singularis (BASSETT), but this is an unjustified emendation. The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature does not allow the change made by MAYR (1881) and, thus, here the name Andricus singularis MAYR, 1870 is reestablished and Andricus singulus MAYR, 1881 is a syn. n. of A. singularis. Besides, the correct name of the American species described by BASSETT is Andricus quercussingularis. - Only the bisexual generation is known to induce small bud galls on Q. cerris (Figs 54a-b). AMBRUS (1974a) erroneously gave the unisexual generation. solitarius (BOYER DE FONSCOLOMBE, 1832) - Synonyms: unisexual generation: Diplolepis gallae pyriformis OLtvrER, 1791, Cynips gallae pyriformis caudatae ANTHOINE, 1794, Diplolepis solitarius BOYER DE FONSCOLOMBE, 1832, Aphilothrix solitaria: MAYR 1870, Andricus solitarius: MAYR 1882, Cynips ferruginea HARTIG, 1840; bisexual generation: Andricus occultus TSCHEK 1871, Oncaspis filigranata DEITMER, 1925, Andricus solitarius filigranatus: DOCTEURS VAN LEEUWEN 1934. Recently Andricus villarrubiae TAVARES, 1930 was synonymized to A. solitarius (PUJADE-VlLLAR, MELIKA & CSÓKA 2000, in print). - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known (DOCTERS VAN LEEUWEN 1934). The bisexual generation induces bud galls (Figs 55b-e), usually found in the leaf axils (Fig. 55a), the unisexual generation produces catkin galls on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, Q. robur, Q. farnetto; Q. virgiliana, and rarely on Q. cerris. stefanii (KlEFFER, 1897) - Synonyms: Cynips Stefanii KlEFFER, 1897, Adleria stefanii: ROHWER & FAGAN 1917, Andricus stefanii: BENSON 1953.- Cynips keszthelyensis was described by MÉHES (1953) on the basis of a gall only. In the original description he mentioned that the gall holotype collected in Italy (Abbázia) and one gall paratype from Hungary (Keszthely), two adult wasps he reared from galls (did not describe them because they were damaged) were deposited at the HNHM in Budapest where, however, we did not find them either in the general collection or in the MÉHES collection. According to MÉHES ( 1953) the species belongs to thepolycerus-group, the structure of the gall closely resembles that of A. polycerus and especially A. stefanii. Later, except AMBRUS (1974a), nobody mentioned this species. According to the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Art. lb and Art. 72c) species described on the basis of galls after 1930 are not valid and, thus, Cynips keszthelyensis is a nomen nudum of Andricus stefanii. - Only the unisexual generation is known to induce bud galls on Q. pubescens and Q. petraea. subterranea (GlRAUD, 1859) - Synonyms: Cynips subterranea GlRAUD, 1859, Cynips trinacriae DE STEFANI, 1906 (synonym of A subterranea (BELLIDO & PUJADE-VlLLAR, in print), Adleria subterranea: ROHWER & FAGAN 1917, Andricus subterranea: BENSON 1953. Cynips polycera trinacriae DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER, 1910 is a syn. n. of A. subterranea. - Only the unisexual generation is known to induce bud galls on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens and rarely on Q. robur (AMBRUS 1974a) (Fig. 56). superfetationis (GlRAUD, 1859) - Synonyms: Cynips superfetationis GlRAUD, 1859, Andricus superfetationis: PASZLAWSZKY 1884. -TAVARES (1916) described a new subspecies, Andricus superfetationis geresianus from Portugal, the female of which has a 14-segmented antenna and also colouration differs from the typical. TAVARES' cynipid collection was destroyed and, thus, it is impossible to study his types. After TAVARES' record it has never been collected on the Iberian Peninsula. So, the validity of this subspecies is doubtful and, thus, we consider Andricus superfetationis geresianus as a nomen dubium. - Only the unisexual generation is known to induce galls on acorn cups on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, and Q. robur (Figs 57a-b). tomentosus (TROTTER, 1901) - Synonyms: Cynips tomentosa TROTTER, 1901, Adleria tomentosa: ROHWER & FAGAN 1917', Andricus tomentosa: BENSON 1953 - Only the unisexual gen-
