Treatment

Neuroterus watensis Shinji, 1938a: 436 , ♂ ♀.

Distribution. Japan (Honshu) ( Shinji 1938a: 436).

Remarks. Uncertain status ( Abe et al. 2007; Pénzes et al. 2018). The types are lost and the original description does not allow confident identification to Neuroterus or any other genus.

Biology. Induces bud galls on Q. serrata (= Q. glandulifera ) (sect. Quercus ) ( Shinji 1938a).

Tribe SYNERGINI (Inquilines, rarely gall inducers)
