A Holarctic genus of 29 species, inducing leaf, twig, shoot and bud galls on oaks from sections Cerris; Castanea , and Chrysolepis . Most species are known from both generations. Adults resemble those of Chilaspis but differ from them in certain morphological characters. This is a paraphyletic genus, with seven species in the Western Palaearctic ( Cerasa et al. 2018) and many species in the Eastern Palaearctic ( Tang et al. 2016a) and the Nearctic Regions ( Melika & Abrahamson 2002). Two species are known from Israel on Q. ithaburensis .
