California Gall-Making Cynipidae with Descriptions of New Species

Excerpt from California Gall-Making Cynipidae With Descriptions of New Species: Plates I and II Of the biology of inquilines or guest wasps we know even less than of the gall-makers. Larvae of these are found within pockets in the galls surrounded by tissue of the protective zone and immediately encircled by nutritive cells. The inquiline has, presumably, the same power to assist in the manufacture of its food that pertains to the true gall-maker, and thus it derives the same benefit from the gall as its host.
