Notes

Species of Cynips excluded from the British and Irish list:

[quercus (Fourcroy, 1785, Diplolepis ) -a-; syn. pubescentis (Mayr, 1881, Dryophanta ) -s-] Both generations reported by Bagnall and Harrison (1918), Bagnall and Harrison (1919) from several localities in Northumberland and Tyne & Wear, perhaps in error due to confusion with the similar quercusfolii. There are no subsequent records and the species requires confirmation as British.
