Dryocosmus
''Dryocosmus'' are a genus of gall wasps. They are cyclically parthenogenetic insects that induce galls on plants in the family Fagaceae. According to recent studies, the genus includes some species previously considered as belonging to the genus ''Chilaspis'', whereas ''Dryocosmus favus'' should be excluded of the genus. ''Dryocosmus'' and ''Chilaspis'' are closely related to the other oak gall wasp taxa (''Aphelonyx'', ''Plagiotrochus'', ''Pseudoneuroterus'', ''Trichagalma'', and some ''Neuroterus'' species) ''Dryocosmus kuriphilus'' is an invasive species in Europe and North America (originating from Asia) that endangers the chestnut trees.L.K.Rieske, Success of an exotic gallmaker, Dryocosmus kuriphilus, on chestnut in the USA: a historical account, EPPO Bulletin 37 (1), 172–174 (2007) Species * ''Dryocosmus archboldi'' Melika & Abrahamson, 2021 * ''Dryocosmus asymmetricus'' (split twig gall wasp) * ''Dryocosmus caspiensis'' * ''Dryocosmus cerriphilus'' * ''Dryoc ...
