Biorhiza nawai ( Ashmead, 1904)

Dryophanta nawai Ashmead, 1904: 80 , ♀.

Diplolepis nawai (Ashmead) Dalla-Torre & Kieffer (1910: 355) , ♀.

Biorhyza [sic] nawai (Ashmead) Monzen (1931: 198) , ♀.

Diplosis [sic] nawai (Ashmead) Shinji (1944: 127) , ♀.

Biorhiza weldi Yasumatsu & Masuda, 1955: 62 , ♂ ♀ & ǒ [syn. in Pujade-Villar et al. (2003b: 169)].

Distribution. China (Beijing Province) ( Abe et al. 2007: 197), Japan (Honshu, Kyushu) ( Ashmead 1904: 81; Nawa 1906: 9; Mukaigawa 1913b: 351; Mukaigawa 1922: 206; Niijima 1913: 289; Monzen 1929: 353; Monzen 1931: 193; Monzen 1954: 25; Matsumura 1931 according to Sakagami 1952; Shinji 1938a: 431; Shinji 1944: 127 (photo 234) and 400; Ishii 1949: 100; Sakagami 1952: 74; Shiraki 1952: 102; Yasumatsu & Masuda 1955: 63; Masuda 1972: 222), Korean Peninsula ( Saito 1932: 102; Kim et al. 1994: 223; Pujade-Villar et al. 2020a: 1213), and the Russian Far East ( Kovalev 1965: 37).

Remarks. The alternating lifecycle was closed and the asexual generation was described by Yasumatsu & Masuda (1955).

Remarks (2). Shinji (1944) miswrote the name of the species (‘ Diplosis nawai ’), but on page 399 the generic name appeared correctly written as Diplolepis nawai . On the other hand, Shinji (1944) wrote ‘Niijima (1911)’ instead of ‘ Niijima (1913) ’ (see Distribution).

Biology. The bud galls of the sexual generation and the root galls of the asexual generation both develop on Q. dentata , Q. mongolica and Q. serrata (sect. Quercus ) ( Table 1; Yasumatsu & Masuda 1955; Pujade-Villar et al. 2020a).
