obtectus (WACHTL, 1880) - Synonyms: Spathegaster (Ameristus) obtecta WACHTL, 1880, Neuroterus obtectus: MAYR 1882. - Only the bisexual generation is known to induce solitary bud galls on Q. cerris only (Fig. 85). politus HARTIG, 1840 - Synonyms: unisexual generation: Andricus burgundus (GlRAUD) SCHELECHTENDAL, 1870 (non GlRAUD, 1859), Neuroterus schlechtendali MAYR, 1870, Neuroterus bipunctatus HARTIG, 1841, Neuroterus rubeculus, HARTIG, 1841, Neuroterus nitens HARTIG, 1841; bisexual generation: Spathegaster petioliventris HARTIG, 1840, Spathegaster aprilinus GlRAUD, 1859, Cynips aprilinus: KALTENBACH 1867, Neuroterus aprilinus: MAYR 1882. PUJADE-VlLLAR & ROS-FARRÉ (2000, in print) after examination of Hartig'

s Neuroterus types, found that N. politus was described earlier than N. petioliventris and M aprilinus and, thus /V. politus must be the valid name of this species. The same authors also synonymized HARTIG's following species to N. politus: N. bipunctatus, N. rubeculus, and N. nitens. - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known (FOLLlOT 1964). The bisexual generation induces catkin galls (Figs 86c-f); the unisexual generation produces galls on the tips of the previous year's shoots on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, and Q. robur (Figs 86a-b). quercusbaccarum (LINNAEUS, 1758) - Synonyms: bisexual generation: Cynips quercus baccarum LINNAEUS, 1758, Cynips quercus pedunculi LINNAEUS, 1758, Cynips baccarum quercus FOURCROY, 1785, Cynips pedunculi quercus FOURCROY, 1785, Diplolepis gallae pisiformis ANTHOINE, 1794, Diplolepis gcdlae concatenae ANTHOINE, 1794, Diplolepis quercusbaccarum: BOYER DE FONSCOLOMBE 1832, Cynips interruptrix HARTIG, 1840, Diplolepis pedunculi: SCHENCK 1863, Neuroterus baccarum: MAYR 1882, Neuroterus quercusbaccarum: DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER 1910; unisexual generation: Diplolepis flavipes FOURCROY, 1785, Diplolepis lenticularis OLIVIER, 1791, Cynips longipennis FABRICIUS, 1793, Diplolepis gallae lenticulae ANTHOINE, 1794, Neuroterus malpighii HARTIG, 1840, Neuroterus lenticularis: SCHENCK 1863, Neuroterus attenuatus SCHENCK, 1863, Neuroterus striatus SCHENCK, 1863. - KlEFFER (1897-1901) described two varieties of the unisexual form (the typical form and Neuroterus lenticularis var. histrio), later they were considered by DALLA TORRE & KlEFFER (1910) as subspecies, Neuroterus quercusbaccarum quercusbaccarum and Neuroterus quercusbaccarum histrio. TAVARES (1916) added new characters to distinguish them and described two other new subspecies: Neuroterus quercusbaccarum intermedins and Neuroterus quercusbaccarum hispanicus which differ from typical N. quercusbaccarum only by chromatic characters and the relative proportions of the 1st and 2nd antennái flagellomeres - characters which strongly vary and arc of no diagnostic value (material on í

histrio

, and 'lenticularis' was examined by JP-V in MNHP). For all the mentioned reasons, we consider Neuroterus quercusbaccarum histrio (KlEFFER) syn. n., Neuroterus quercusbaccarum intermedins TAVARES syn. n., Neuroterus quercusbaccarum hispanicus TAVARES syn. n.. of N. quercusbaccarum. - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known (ADLER 1 881). The bisexual generation induces spangle-like leaf galls (Fig. 87b-c), the unisexual generation produces catkin galls on Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, Q. robur, and Q. farnetto (Figs 87a). saliens (KOLLAR, 1857) - Synonyms: bisexual generation: Cynips saliens KOLLAR, 1857, Neuroterus saliens: MAYR 1870, Neuroterus saltans GlRAUD, 1859; unisexual generation: Spathegaster glandiformis GlRAUD, 1859, Cynips glandiformis: KALTENBACH 1867, Neuroterus glandiformis: MAYR 1882. - Alternate uni- and bisexual generations are known (BARBOTIN 1972). The bisexual generation induces acorn galls on Q. robur, Q. petraea, and Q. cerris (Figs 88a-d); the unisexual generation produces galls on shoots on Q. cerris only (Figs 88e-g). tricolor (HARTIG, 1841) - Synonyms: bisexual generation: Spathegaster tricolor HARTIG, 1841, Cynips tricolor: KALTENBACH 1867, Neuroterus tricolor: MAYR 1882; unisexual generation: Neuroterus fumipennis HARTIG, 1841, Spathegaster fumipennis: MARSHALL 1867, Spathegaster varius SCHENCK, 1863, Cynips fumipennis: THOMSON 1877, Neuroterus tricolor ulisipponensis
