Eurytoma querciglobuli rubra - Eurytoma - female

Eurytoma querciglobuli rubra - Eurytoma - Female
Gainesville, Alachua County, Florida, USA
October 29, 2018
Reared from Disholcaspis quercusvirens gall on Quercus virginiana

Bullet galls…
The literature mentions Eurytoma querciglobuli as a known species of this particular host. There is an article about Disholcaspis quercusvirens in Florida that might interest you here.

 
Yes I am currently working on
Yes I am currently working on revising the oak gall eurytomids, I will likely update this with an ID once I finish.

 
I found Bugbee's description
I found Bugbee's description of the subspecies Eurytoma querciglobuli rubra that seems to fit in terms of host, locality, and coloration, whether this will be elevated to a new species or not will have to wait until molecular data.
