GALL MIDGES (DIPTERA: CECIDOMYIIDAE) OF THE IBERIAN PENINSULA 111
Larvae develop in atrophied acorns of Quercus robur L. and Q. lusitanica Lam. (Fagaceae). Occurrence:
very scarce (Fig. 57). Reference: TAVARES (1919). Distribution: Mediterranean.
Dasineura teucrii (Tavares, 1903)
Larvae cause terminal leaf bud galls on Teucrium scorodonia L., T. lusitanicum Lam. and
T. salviastrum Schreber (Lamiaceae). Occurrence: frequent (Fig. 57). References: TAVARES
(1903, 1905a, 1909, 1916a, 1931), COGOLLUDO (1921). Distribution: Mediterranean.
Dasineura tiliae (Schrank, 1803)
Cecidomyia tiliamvolvens Rübsaamen, 1889
Larvae cause galls in form of rolled leaf margins on Tilia platyphyllos Scop. (Tiliaceae).
Occurrence: very scarce (Fig. 58); Guimerà (Lleida, 2001) leg. Pujade-Villar. Reference:
SKUHRAVÁ et al. (1996). Distribution: Euro-Siberian.
Dasineura trifolii (F. Löw, 1874)
Larvae cause galls – folded leaflets of Trifolium repens L. (Fabaceae). Occurrence: very
scarce (Fig. 58). References: TROTTER (1902b), COGOLLUDO (1921). Distribution: Euro-
Siberian.
Dasineura trotteri (Tavares, 1902)
Larvae cause fusiform one-sided swellings on stems of Cytisus multiflorus (L´Her.) Sweet
(= C. albus Link.), C. scoparius Koch., C. striatus (Hill) Rothm. (= C. welwitschii Bss. et
Reut.) (Fabaceae). Occurrence: frequent (Fig. 59). References: TAVARES (1902d, 1905a,
1909, 1916a), COGOLLUDO (1921). Distribution: Mediterranean.
Dasineura tubicoloides Gagné, 2004
Cecidomyia tubicola Kieffer, 1889
Larvae cause galls on Cytisus (Sarothamnus) scoparius L., C. striatus (Hill) Rothm. (= C.
welwitschii B. R.), C. patens Webb. and C. grandiflorus Webb. (Fabaceae). The galls are
formed by lateral buds which are elongate, tubular, swollen and adpressed to the stem. It
is not quite clear if the same gall midge species occurs in galls of all mentioned host plant
species. Occurrence: frequent (Fig. 59). References: TAVARES (1902b, 1905a, 1909, 1921).
Distribution: European.
Dasineura turionum (Kieffer & Trotter, 1904)
Larvae are known to cause galls of two forms on Asparagus acutifolius L. (Liliaceae). The
first gall form is consisted of many deformed small swollen leaves at the tip of the shoots
which include inside red larvae; the second form of he gall is presented by the whole shoot
which is swollen and deformed and under each of deformed thorns one larva develops. Occurrence:
very scarce (Fig. 60); Matadepera (Barcelona, 1990) leg. Pujade-Villar. Reference:
SKUHRAVÁ et al. (1996). Distribution: Mediterranean.
Dasineura ulmaria (Bremi, 1847)
Larvae cause small, smooth, rounded swellings on leaves of Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Max.
(Rosaceae). Occurrence: scarce (Fig. 60). References: HOUARD (1918), COGOLLUDO
(1921). Distribution: Euro-Siberian.
Dasineura ulmicola (Kieffer, 1909)
Larvae cause small pustule galls on leaves of Ulmus minor Mill. (Ulmaceae), with openings
