"looks like a gall maker, but I cannot say for sure"

Date
I've now added the dates to the remarks. I didn't put them in the date field because the specimen had been indoors for a long time.
Some of my other reared gall photos are probably missing dates, too, so I'll check them presently.

Date?
What is the date of these pictures? Whether you include it in the data field or not it is important to know.
