This unusual group is another example of a monotypic tribe in the Cynipinae . Species are gallers on Scolopia (Salicaceae) in South Africa. In fact, this tribe appears to be endemic to South Africa, where a single species galls Scolopia mundii , forming unilocular stem galls ( Liljeblad et al. 2011).
Biology. Gall inducer on Scolopia mundii (Eckl. & Zeyh.) Warb. (Salicaceae) , a tree in the eudicot subclass Rosidae ( Liljeblad et al. 2011).
Distribution. South Africa: Kwazulu-Natal; Mpumalanga.
Relevant literature. Tribe and its only species recently described by Liljeblad et al. (2011); treated again in Ronquist et al. (2015).
