GALL MIDGES (DIPTERA: CECIDOMYIIDAE) OF THE IBERIAN PENINSULA 109
robur L. and Q. petraea (Matt.) Liebl. (Fagaceae). Kieffer (1909) described this species very
briefly based on the shape of the gall which was found in Spain (without giving the name
of the locality). He named the species after the finder, R. P. Pantel, who lived in Mérida
(Badajoz, Spain) and evidently sent galls to J. J. Kieffer for identification. Occurrence: very
scarce (Fig. 49). Reference: TAVARES (1920). Distribution: Mediterranean.
Dasineura periclymeni (Rübsaamen, 1889)
Larvae cause marginal leaf rolls of Lonicera periclymenum L. (Caprifoliaceae). Occurrence:
scarce (Fig. 50). References: TAVARES (1902a, 1905a, 1921). Distribution: European.
Dasineura plicatrix (Loew, 1850)
Larvae change in galls young leaves of Rubus caesius L. (Rosaceae) and Rubus spp. Attacked
leaves are unregularly twisted, folded along veins and deformed. Occurrence: very frequent
(Fig. 50) ; Caldes de Malavella and Figueres (Girona, 1991, new findings), Cornudella
(Tarragona, 1996, new finding), Matadepera and Bellaterra (Barcelona, 1989-1994, new
findings), Montseny (Barcelona, 1991, new finding), Olot (Girona, 1997), Tàrrega (Lleida,
2004, new finding), Rubielos de Mora (Teruel, 1999, new finding), Sispony (Andorra,
2003, new record), leg. Pujade-Villar. References: TAVARES (1902a, 1905a, 1909, 1931).
Distribution: Euro-Siberian.
Dasineura populeti (Rübsaamen, 1889)
Larvae cause galls in form of rolled leaf margins on Populus tremula L. (Salicaceae). Occurrence:
very scarce (Fig. 51). Reference: TAVARES (1931). Distribution: Euro-Siberian.
Dasineura pteridis (Müller, 1871)
Cecidomyia filicina Kieffer, 1889
Larvae cause galls on leaflets of Pteridium aquilinum Kuhn (Hypolepidaceae). The gall is
swollen rolled leaf margin. Occurrence: medium frequent (Fig. 51); La Roca del Vallès (Barcelona
1993, new finding), leg. Pujade-Villar. References: TAVARES (1903, 1905a, 1909,
1921, 1931), COGOLLUDO (1921). Distribution: European.
Dasineura pyri (Bouché, 1847)
Larvae produce galls in form of swollen rolled leaf margins of Pyrus communis L. (Rosaceae).
Occurrence: very scarce (Fig. 52). Reference: TAVARES (1921). Distribution: European.
Dasineura ranunculi (Bremi, 1847)
Larvae cause cornet-shaped rolled and swollen leaves on Ranunculus repens L. (Ranunculaceae).
Occurrence: scarce (Fig. 52); Matadepera (Barcelona, 1994) and Montseny (Barcelona, 1995)
leg. Pujade-Villar. References: SKUHRAVÁ et al. (1996). Distribution: Euro-Siberian.
Dasineura rhododendri (Kieffer, 1909)
Perrisia rhododendri Kieffer, 1909
Larvae cause large bud leaf galls on Rhododendron ferrugineum L. (Ericaceae). Occurrence:
scarce (Fig. 53); Vall d‘Aran (Lleida, 1979) leg. Pujade-Villar and Tristaina (Andorra, 2003,
new record). Reference: SKUHRAVÁ et al. (1996). Distribution: European.
