- Gullan1984: pp.10 ( Adult (F) ) [Adult females and female galls of Apiomorpha]
Remarks
- Systematics: Slide-mounted adult female is characterized by having: abdominal segment IX longer ventrally than dorsally; abdomen curvilinearly tapered to base of anal lobes; spiracles fimbriate trilabiate; anal ring not invaginated; tibiotarsus falciform (Gullan, 1984).
- Structure: Female galls are ovoid to ellipsoidal, apex truncate. Male gall tubular, apex dilated (Gullan, 1984).
- Biology: Female galls are produced on stems and rarely on a bud or fruit. Male galls are produced usually on leaves especially near midrib, but sometimes occur on petiole, stem or fruit of the host plant (Gullan, 1984). Cook & Gullan (2002) provide information on gall and insect development under glasshouse conditions (summarized in table 2, page 262).
- General Remarks: Gullan (1984) described adult female, female gall, male gall and provided illustration of female and crawler. Ferris (1957b) illustrated adult female.
