It primarily attacks the psyllid '' Pachypsylla celtidismamma'', although it is known to attack other related species in the genus '' Pachypsylla''.

Torymidae
Torymidae is a family of wasps in the superfamily Chalcidoidea. Most species in this family are small with attractive metallic coloration, and females generally have long ovipositors. Many are parasitoids on gall-forming insects, and some are phytophagous (plant-eating) species, sometimes using the galls formed by other insects. Over 960 species in about 70 genera are found worldwide. They are best recognized in that they are one of the few groups of Chalcidoidea Chalcid wasps (, , for their metallic colour) are insects within the superfamily Chalcidoidea, part of the order Hymenoptera. The superfamily contains some 22,500 known species, and an estimated total diversity of more than 500,000 species, me ... in which the cerci are visible. Systematics The family was first described by Walker in 1833 and the infrafamiliar classification has been revised several times. A number of subfamilies were created within Torymidae, some of which have since been transferred to other fam ...

Psyllidae
Psyllidae, the jumping plant lice or psyllids, are a family of small plant-feeding insects that tend to be very host-specific, i.e. each plant-louse species only feeds on one plant species (monophagous) or feeds on a few closely related plants (oligophagous). Together with aphids, phylloxerans, scale insects and whiteflies, they form the group called Sternorrhyncha, which is considered to be the most "primitive" group within the true bugs (Hemiptera). They have traditionally been considered a single family, Psyllidae, but recent classifications divide the group into a total of seven families; the present restricted definition still includes more than 70 genera in the Psyllidae. Psyllid fossils have been found from the Early Permian before the flowering plants evolved. The explosive diversification of the flowering plants in the Cretaceous was paralleled by a massive diversification of associated insects, and many of the morphological and metabolic characters that the flowering p ...

Pachypsylla
''Pachypsylla'' is a genus of psyllids. Species of the genus ''Pachypsylla'' lay eggs on the leaves of the ''Celtis occidentalis'' tree. Upon hatching, the young psyllids become encased in a gall which the young leaf parts grow in response to the infestation. Species The following species are recognised in the genus ''Pachypsylla'': *''Pachypsylla celtidisasterisca'' Riley, 1890 *''Pachypsylla celtidiscucurbita'' Riley, 1890 *''Pachypsylla celtidisgemma'' Riley, 1885 – hackberry bud gall maker *''Pachypsylla celtidisglobula'' Riley, 1890 *''Pachypsylla celtidisinteneris'' Mally, 1894 *''Pachypsylla celtidismamma'' (Riley, 1881) – hackberry nipplegall maker *''Pachypsylla celtidispubescens'' Riley, 1890 *''Pachypsylla celtidisumbilicus'' Riley, 1890 *''Pachypsylla celtidisvesicula'' Riley, 1890 – hackberry blistergall psyllid *''Pachypsylla cohabitans'' Yang & Riemann, 2001 *''Pachypsylla dubia'' Patch, 1912 *''Pachypsylla pallida'' Patch, 1912 *''Pachypsylla tropicala' ...
