Latuspina atamiensis ( Ashmead, 1904)

Neuroterus atamiensis Ashmead, 1904: 79 , ǒ (according to Ide & Abe 2016).

Latuspina atamiensis (Ashmead) Ide & Abe (2016: 816) , ♂ ♀ & ǒ.

Distribution. Japan (Honshu, Kyushu) ( Ashmead 1904: 79; Monzen 1931: 193; Monzen 1953: 15; Shinji 1938a: 427; Sakagami 1952: 72; Yukawa & Masuda 1996: 135, 146; Ide & Abe 2016: 818).

Remarks. The alternating lifecycle was closed by Yukawa & Masuda (1996) and the sexual generation was described by Ide & Abe (2016).

Remarks (2). Yukawa & Masuda (1996) photographed the sexual gall and described it as ‘Kunugi-mi-ko-togaritama-fushi’ (C-104), and the asexual gall as ‘Kunugi-ha-guki-ko-tama-fushi’ (C-081). Later, Ide & Abe (2016) mentioned that these galls correspond to the sexual and asexual generations of L. atamiensis .

Biology. The acorn galls of the sexual generation and the dehiscent petiole galls of the asexual generation both develop on Q. acutissima and Q. variabilis (sect. Cerris ) ( Table 1; Ide & Abe 2016).
