Daphnephila
''Daphnephila'' is a genus of gall midge that appears in the Palearctic and Oriental biogeographic realms. ''Daphnephila'' species create leaf and stem galls on species of laurel plants, particularly in '' Machilus''. Based on analysis on sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, it has been suggested that in this genus, the stem-galling habit is a more ancestral state as opposed to the leaf-galling habit. ''Daphnephila'' was first described in 1905 by French entomologist Jean-Jacques Kieffer. It contains at least nine described species from India, Japan, and Taiwan, and many more undescribed species are known. The genus appears to have originated tropically and dispersed to Japan through Taiwan. References Bibliography * * * * Further reading * Pan, Liang-Yu, et al.

Ampelomyia
''Ampelomyia'' is a genus of gall midges in the tribe Asphondyliini. It consists of the following four species, all of which form galls on grape A grape is a fruit, botanically a berry, of the deciduous woody vines of the flowering plant genus ''Vitis''. Grapes are a non- climacteric type of fruit, generally occurring in clusters. The cultivation of grapes began perhaps 8,000 years ago, ... plants: * '' A. conicocoricis'' * '' A. viticola'' * '' A. vitiscoryloides'' * '' A. vitispomum'' References Cecidomyiinae Cecidomyiidae genera {{Bibionomorpha-stub Insects described in 2019 Taxa named by Ayman Khamis Elsayed Taxa named by Makoto Tokuda Gall-inducing insects ...

Cecidomyiinae
The Cecidomyiinae are a subfamily of flies often called gall midges or gall gnats. This subfamily is best known for its members that induce galls on plants, but there are also many species that are fungivorous, parasitoids, or predacious as maggots. Systematics Cecidomyiinae - supertribes, tribes, and genera: *Supertribe Asphondyliidi **Tribe Asphondyliini ***''Asphondylia'' Loew, 1850 **Tribe Kiefferiini ***'' Kiefferia'' Mik, 1895 **Tribe Polystephini ***''Polystepha'' Kieffer, 1897 **Tribe Schizomyiini ***'' Placochela'' Rübsaamen, 1916 ***''Schizomyia'' Kieffer, 1889 *Supertribe Cecidomyiidi **Tribe Anadiplosini **Tribe Aphidoletini **Tribe Cecidomyiini ***'' Acodiplosis'' Kieffer, 1895 ***'' Ametrodiplosis'' Rübsaamen, 1910 ***''Anabremia'' Kieffer, 1912 ***'' Anisostephus'' Rübsaamen, 1917 ***'' Antichiridium'' Rübsaamen, 1911 ***'' Aphidoletes'' Kieffer, 1904 ***'' Arthrocnodax'' Rübsaamen, 1895 ***'' Atrichosema'' Kieffer, 1904 ***'' Blastodiplosis ...

Gall Midge
Cecidomyiidae is a family of flies known as gall midges or gall gnats. As the name implies, the larvae of most gall midges feed within plant tissue, creating abnormal plant growths called galls. Cecidomyiidae are very fragile small insects usually only in length; many are less than long. They are characterised by hairy wings, unusual in the order Diptera, and have long antennae. Some Cecidomyiids are also known for the strange phenomenon of paedogenesis in which the larval stage reproduces without maturing first. In some species, the daughter larvae consume the mother, while in others, reproduction occurs later on in the egg or pupa. More than 6,650 species and 830 genera are described worldwide, though this is certainly an underestimate of the actual diversity of this family. A DNA barcoding study published in 2016 estimated the fauna of Canada alone to be in excess of 16,000 species, hinting at a staggering global count of over 1 million cecidomyiid species that have yet ...

Asphondylia
''Asphondylia'' is a cosmopolitan genus of gall midges in the family Cecidomyiidae. All species in this genus induce galls on plants, especially on flowers and flower buds. There are over 300 described species in ''Asphondylia'', with many more likely to be discovered and described, especially in the southern hemisphere. Within the genus, characteristics of the larvae and pupae are often most useful for distinguishing between species since adults of most species look very similar to one another. The species inducing a given gall can sometimes be identified based on the shape and placement of the gall in combination with the identity of the host A host is a person responsible for guests at an event or for providing hospitality during it. Host may also refer to: Places * Host, Pennsylvania, a village in Berks County People *Jim Host (born 1937), American businessman * Michel Host ... plant.
