A large Holarctic genus of approximately 300 described species ( Melika & Abrahamson 2002), inducing a great diversity of galls on all tree organs and on numerous oak species from sections Cerris, Quercus, Lobatae and Protobalanus . The genus is represented by 81 species in the Western Palearctic fauna, 28 of which are known from both generations, ( Stone et al. 2008). Some species exhibit obligate host alternations between a sexual generation on oaks from section Cerris and an asexual generation on oaks from section Quercus . Curently, 28 species are known from Israel from Q. ithaburensis , Q. boissieri , Q. libani and Q. cerris .
