Gall 1 - Druon quercuslanigerum
Russ Pitman Park, Houston, Harris County, Texas, USA
There were five "capsules" in a row under the wool. I removed one that had a different shape (less elongated and more disc-like), because I thought it might be a different species. An adult later emerged from one of these remaining, elongated capsules.

This photo taken on 1/31/2010. I collected this specimen around the end of November 2009, I think.
