Distribution. Japan (Honshu, Shikoku) (Yukawa & Masuda 1996: 122; Ide & Abe 2016: 828).

Remarks. Yukawa & Masuda (1996) described their gall type C-048 as ‘Abemaki-ha-ibo-tama-fushi’. Later, Ide & Abe (2016) mentioned that these galls belong to a newly described species, L. abemakiphila .

Biology. Only the sexual generation has been described, which induces integral leaf galls on Q. variabilis (sect. Cerris) (Table 1; Ide & Abe 2016).
