Nomenclatural History
- Brachyscelis munita munita Schrader 1863: 2. Type data: AUSTRALIA: New South Wales, Kiandra, Snowy Mountains, 14/04/1975. Neotype, female, by subsequent designation (Gullan1984,30). Type depository: Canberra: Australian National Insect Collection, CSIRO Entomology, Australia; accepted valid name
- Brachyscelis munita foliosa Tepper 1893: 273. Type data: not given in description. Unknown type status, unknown, junior synonym (discovered by Hoy1963, 39). Notes: Name was proposed provisionally and based solely on gall.
- Brachyscelis munita reducta Tepper 1893: 273. Type data: not given in description. Unknown type status, unknown, junior synonym (discovered by Hoy1963, 39). Notes: Description based on gall.
- Brachyscelis tricornis Froggatt 1893: 361. Type data: AUSTRALIA: Queensland, Rockwood, on Eucalyptus siderophloia, by J.J. Fletcher. Unknown type status, female, junior synonym (discovered by Frogga1921a, 131). Notes: Considered by Gullan (1984) as a nomen dubium. According to Gullan (1984) "type specimens of Brachyscelis tricornis are unknown. Froggatt probably did not designate types." Illustr.
- Apiomorpha munita (Schrader, 1863); Rübsaamen 1894: 205. change of combination
- Apiomorpha cornifex Rübsaamen 1894: 205. junior synonym (discovered by Frogga1898a, 490). Notes: Considered by Gullan (1984) as a nomen dubium. Types of Rübsaamen in the ZMHB apparently were destroyed during World War II (Gullan, 1984).
- Apiomorpha munita foliosa (Tepper, 1893); Cockerell 1896b: 328. change of combination
- Apiomorpha munita reducta (Tepper, 1893); Cockerell 1896b: 328. change of combination
- Apiomorpha tricornis (Froggatt, 1893); Cockerell 1896b: 328. change of combination
- Apiomorpha munita munitior Fuller 1899: 445. Type data: AUSTRALIA: Western Australia, near Swan River. Unknown type status, unknown, junior synonym (discovered by Hoy1963, 39). Notes: Description based on gall. Considered by Gullan (1984) as a nomen dubium.
- Brachyscelis munita elongata Lidgett 1901a: 77. Type data: AUSTRALIA: Myrniong, Victoria, Eucalyptus gonioclayx. Unknown type status, unknown, junior synonym (discovered by Gullan1984, 30). Notes: "No specimens are known from Lidgett" (Gullan, personal communication, April 29, 1998). This name has not been used since its original description in 1901 except for when it was considered as a junior synonym of Apiomorpha munita munita by Gullan (1984). Gullan does not explicitly synonymize Brachyscelis munita elongata Lidgett, but simply treats it as another reference to A. munita munita. Illustr.
- Apiomorpha munita tricornis (Froggatt, 1893); Fernald 1903b: 43. change in status (level) (discovered by Frogga1921a, 131).
- Apiomorpha munita malleensis Gullan 1984: 31. Type data: AUSTRALIA: Victoria, Broken Bucket Reserve, 19 km NNW Yanac, Big Desert, on Eucalyptus dumosa, 13/02/1977. Holotype, female, by original designation Type depository: Canberra: Australian National Insect Collection, CSIRO Entomology, Australia; accepted valid name Illustr.
- Apiomorpha munita tereticornuta Gullan 1984: 30. Type data: AUSTRALIA: Victoria, Blackburn Reserve, off Lake Road, on Eucalyptus melliodora, 09/02/1979. Holotype, female, by original designation Type depository: Canberra: Australian National Insect Collection, CSIRO Entomology, Australia; accepted valid name Illustr.

Remarks
- Systematics: The adult males of A. munita tereticornuta are similar to those of A. ovicola in having well-developed caudal extensions on abdominal segment VIII. They both also have: (i) fleshy setae on the scape, coxa and femur; (ii) small pores on head; (iii) loculate pores on prothorax and mesothorax, and (iv) long dorsal abdominal setae. However, it is thought likely that A. munita tereticornuta refers to multiple species. (Hodgso, 2020)
- Structure: Mature galls four sided with cylindrical or narrow, blade-like appendages which continue basally as indistinct corner ridges on the body of the gall (Gullan, 1984).
- General Remarks: First instar illustrated by Ferris (1957b), adult female described and illustrated by Gullan (1984) with photographs of male and female galls.
