Cecidomyiidae galls (Tall Thoroughwort) - Neolasioptera perfoliata
Red Oak Prairie, Allamakee County, Iowa, USA
October 19, 2011
Finally, I was able to ID the plants whose stem galls were collected in 2008, Tall thoroughwort, Eupatorium altissimum
Same as these
But I have lots of questions.
The fore gall to the left looks as if something else might be going on. Anyone have an opinion?
Galls collected October 11, 2011

This is a batch rearing.

R Gagné says: "Neolasioptera perfoliata (Felt)"
Specimens deposited NMNH.
