Cycloneuroterus lohsei Melika & Tang, 2016

Cycloneuroterus lohsei Melika & Tang in Tang et al. (2016b: 476) , ♂ ♀.

Distribution. Taiwan ( Tang et al. 2016b: 479).

Remarks. Only the sexual generation has been described. The alternating lifecycle was closed by Tang et al. (2016b) on the basis of DNA sequences obtained from larvae dissected from asexual generation galls.

Biology. The sexual generation induces integral galls on very young leaves of Q. sessilifolia Blume , while the asexual generation induces detachable leaf galls on Q. gilva (both in section Cyclobalanopsis ) ( Table 1; Tang et al. 2016b).
