Tataroğlu &amp; Y. Katılmış leg.; collected date: 21.XI.2022; emerging date: 14.IV. 2023 in lab . PARATYPES: 2♀♀, the same data as the holotype. The holotype and paratypes are deposited in the ERL-PAU.</p><p>Etymology. In honour of second author’s father and son, İsmail Katılmış.</p><p>Diagnosis. Andricus ismaili sp. n. belongs to the group of species ( A. caliciformis (Giraud, 1859) and A. kollari (Hartig, 1843)), within the “ kollari ” group, which is characterized by a coriaceous malar space with indistinct punctures, uniformly deep and complete notauli always reaching the pronotum, uniformly densely pubescent mesopleuron, and acetabular carina delimiting a narrow area on the mesopleuron, and usually light brown to amber head and mesosoma. However, Andricus ismaili sp. n. differs from A. caliciformis and A. kollari in the shape of the pronotum (the ventro-lateral edge of the pronotum with distinct longitudinal striae and only the dorso-lateral part of the pronotum coriaceous in A. ismaili sp. n.; the ventro-lateral edge of the pronotum coriaceous, like the rest of the pronotum in A. caliciformis and A. kollari), and the shape of the scutellar foveae (scutellar foveae are smooth, without setae, and well delimited around in A. ismaili sp. n.; scutellar foveae with dense setae, not clearly delimited posteriorly in A. caliciformis and A. kollari).</p><p>Description.</p><p>ASEXUAL FEMALE (description based on holotype and paratypes) (Figs. 1–3).</p><p>Body length. 3.6–4.0 mm (n=3).</p><p>Colour. Head, antennae, mesosoma, wing veins, and legs are uniformly yellowish-brown; the metasoma is yellowish-brown, slightly darker antero-dorsally.</p><p>Head. Head is delicately coriaceous, with uniformly sparse white setae, 2.2–2.5 times as broad as long from above, 1.4–1.6 times as broad as high in front view, and slightly narrower than mesosoma. The gena is delicately coriaceous, strongly broadened behind the eye. The malar space is coriaceous, nearly 0.4 times as long as the height of the eye, with a few delicate striae radiating from the clypeus and extending at least to half-length of the malar space. POL is 1.5–1.7 times as long as OOL; OOL is 1.5–1.6 times as long as the diameter of the lateral ocellus and longer than LOL. The transfacial distance 1.3 times as long as the height of the eye and 1.6–1.7 times as long as the height of the lower face (distance between antennal rim and ventral margin of clypeus); the diameter of the antennal torulus is 1.4–1.5 times as long as the distance between them, and the distance between the torulus and the eye margin is 1.3–1.4 times as long as the diameter of the torulus. The lower face is delicately coriaceous, with a slightly elevated median area. The clypeus is coriaceous, with white setae with distinct deep anterior tentorial pits, with a distinct epistomal sulcus and a clypeo-pleurostomal line, with the ventral margin slightly emarginated. Vertex and occiput are delicately coriaceous.</p><p>Antenna. The antenna is 13-segmented; the pedicel is 1.6 times as long as broad; F1 is 2.2–2.3 times as long as the pedicel and 1.2–1.3 times as long as F2; F11 is 2.2 times as long as F10. Placodeal sensilla are present on F4–F11, but absent on F1–F3.</p><p>Mesosoma is convex in lateral view, 1.2 times as long as high, with uniformly white setae. The dorso-lateral part of the pronotum is coriaceous with dense white setae, while the ventro-lateral edge of the pronotum has distinct longitudinal striae and white setae. The scutum is uniformly coriaceous, nearly as long as broad from above, with complete and well-impressed notauli. The median mesoscutal line is present as a short, shallow but distinct furrow only posteriorly, while the parapsidal lines are distinct and broad, 0.5 times as long as the scutum length. The anterior parallel lines are distinct and reach to half the length of the scutum. The scutellum is 2.8 times as short as scutum, broader than long, dull rugose, with delicately coriaceous sculpture medially, and uniformly white setae, overhanging metanotum. The scutellar foveae are transversely ovate, deep, smooth, well delimited around, without setae, and medially separated by a central carina. The mesopleuron, including speculum, is mostly coriaceous with dense white setae, but the upper anterior part of the mesopleuron has distinct longitudinal striae. The mesopleural triangle has dense white setae, while the acetabular carina delimits a very narrow area laterally. The metapleural sulcus reaches the mesopleuron around 1/2 of its height, and the area delimited by the inferior part of the metapleural sulcus has very dense white setae. The axillar carina is longitudinally wrinkled, and the axillula has dense white setae, while the subaxillular bar is smooth, shining, and equal to the height of the metanotal trough. The ventral bar of the metanotal trough is wrinkled and narrower than the height of the metanotal trough. The dorsellum is rugose, nearly 1.2 times as broad as the height of the ventral impressed area; the metanotal trough has dense white setae; the ventral impressed area of the dorsellum is rugose. The propodeum has dense white setae; the lateral propodeal carinae curved outwards in the middle. Only the upper end part of the lateral propodeal carinae has very few setae, while the central propodeal area is smooth and shining. The lateral propodeal area has dense white setae, and the nucha is rugose.</p><p>Forewing has yellowish-brown veins, with the margin having very short tender cilia. The radial cell is 3.5–4.0 times as long as broad, Rs and R1 not reaching wing margin. The areolet is distinct, and Rs+M nearly reaches the basal vein.</p><p>Legs. The foretibia has short, strong, sparsely applied setae. The tarsal claws feature a strong basal lobe.</p><p>Metasoma is higher than long in lateral view, with all tergites exhibiting a band of white setae. The prominent part of the ventral spine of the hypopygium is 5.0–5.2 times as long as broad in ventral view, with a few short setae.</p><p>Gall. (Fig. 4). A bud gall develops on the shoots. The general shape of the asexual gall tends to be conical, reaching a length of 10–15 mm at maturity. Some conical galls may exhibit a pimple-like protrusion at the apex. The young gall is green in color, gradually turning light brown as it matures. There is a single larval chamber at the base of the gall from which adults emerge. The gall tissue is woody. Older galls do not fall from the host tree but darken with age.</p><p>Biology. Only the asexual generation of this species is known. Asexual galls mature in the autumn, and asexual females emerge early the following spring.</p><p>Host plant. Quercus infectoria .</p><p>Distribution.

Tataroğlu &amp; Y. Katılmış leg.; collected date: 24.V.2023; emerging date: 10.VI. 2023 in lab . PARATYPES: 2♀♀, 2♂♂ the same data as the holotype. The holotype and paratypes are deposited in the ERL-PAU.</p><p>Etymology. In honour of first author’s grandfather, Musa Azmaz who passed in 2013.</p><p>Diagnosis. Andricus musaazmazi sp. n. most closely resembles Andricus pseudoinflator Tavares, 1901 . Both of these species are characterized by F2 being much longer than pedicel; terminal flagellomeres distinctly longer than broad; pronotum laterally and posteriorly exhibiting some distinct striae. However, in A. musaazmazi sp. n. the gena is not visible in front view behind the compound eye, the antenna is 14–segmented (with the suture between F11 and F12 being indistinct), the median mesoscutal line is distinct and shallow, and the radial cell 4.5–5.0 times as long as broad, whereas in A. pseudoinflator, the gena is weakly visible in front view behind the compound eye, the antenna is 13-segmented, the median mesoscutal line is almost invisible, and the radial cell is 3.5 times as long as broad (Nieves-Aldrey 2001). Moreover, A. pseudoinflator induces sexual galls on section Quercus oaks ( Q. robur), while A. musaazmazi sp. n. forms sexual galls on section Cerris oaks ( Q. trojana, etc.).</p><p>Description.</p><p>SEXUAL FEMALE (description based on holotype and paratypes) (Figs. 5–7a).</p><p>Body length. 2.0– 2.2 mm (n=3).</p><p>Colour. The head, mesosoma, legs, and antennae are amber-yellow, while the metasoma is reddish-yellow, with reddish-brown apical and dorsal portions. The last antennal flagellomeres are slightly darker, and the area around the ocelli is dark brown, with black compound eyes. The wing veins are distinct and brown.</p><p>Head. The head is entirely rugose-rugulose, with sparse white setae, measuring 2.2–2.4 times as broad as long from above and 1.1–1.2 times as broad as high in front view, slightly broader than the mesosoma. The gena is alutaceous and not visible in front view behind the eye. The malar space has striae and is 0.2–0.3 times as long as the height of the eye. POL is 2.7 times as long as OOL; OOL is slightly shorter than the diameter of the lateral ocellus and 0.7–0.8 times as long as LOL. The transfacial distance is 0.8 times as long as the height of the eye and 1.2 times as long as the height of the lower face (the distance between the antennal rim and the ventral margin of the clypeus); the diameter of the antennal torulus is 1.4 times as long as the distance between them, and the distance between the torulus and the eye margin is slightly shorter than the diameter of the torulus. The lower face is rugulose, with a slightly elevated median area. The clypeus is slightly rugulose, with distinct deep anterior tentorial pits, an indistinct epistomal sulcus, and a distinct clypeo-pleurostomal line. The anterior edge is emarginated, with sparse white setae. The vertex and occiput are rugose.</p><p>Antenna. The antenna is 14-segmented; the pedicel is 1.4 times as long as broad. F1 is 1.9 times as long as the pedicel and 1.0–1.1 times as long as F2. Placodeal sensilla are present on F3–F12 but absent on F1–F2.</p><p>Mesosoma. The mesosoma is convex with white setae, and it is 1.2–1.3 times as long as high in lateral view. The pronotum is rugose-rugulose, with delicate wrinkles along the ventro-lateral area. The scutum is mostly coriaceous, with some areas partially alutaceous, and slightly broader than long (width measured across the basis of the tegulae). The notauli are complete and well-impressed along their entire length. The median mesoscutal line is distinct and shallow, extending to 1/4 of the scutum’s length. The parapsidal lines are indistinct and narrow, reaching to half the length of the scutum, while the anterior parallel lines reach to 1/3 of the scutum’s length. The scutellum is 2.3 times as short as the scutum, slightly broader than long, and dull rugose, overhanging the metanotum. The scutellar foveae are transversely ovate, deep, and posteriorly not delimited by sculpture, with a smooth, mat bottom, without setae, and separated medially by a central carina. The mesopleuron is partially smooth and finely striated only in the antero-median part, sparsely punctate ventrally, with the speculum always smooth and shining. The upper anterior part of the mesopleural triangle exhibits some delicate wrinkles and white setae, while the acetabular carina delimits an area laterally. The metapleural sulcus reaches the mesopleuron in the upper 1/3 of its height, and the area delimited by the inferior part of the metapleural sulcus is smooth with long white setae. The axillar carina has some longitudinal striae, and the axillula is smooth with some wrinkles and sparse white setae. The subaxillular bar is smooth and shining, broader than the height of the metanotal trough at its most posterior end. There is a carina along the anterior border of the propodeal spiracle, strongly raised. The ventral bar of the metanotal trough is sculptured with some wrinkles and is at least 2.0 times narrower than the height of the metanotal trough. The metanotal trough is smooth, slightly wrinkled, with setae. The lateral propodeal area is smooth with white setae, while the nucha is rugose-rugulose.</p><p>Forewing has distinct brown veins, with cilia along the margin. The radial cell is 4.5–5.0 times as long as broad, Rs nearly reaching the wing margin and R1 never reaching the wing margin. The areolet is distinct, and Rs+M is also distinct, projecting into the lower part of basalis.</p><p>Legs. The tarsal claws have a basal lobe.</p><p>Metasoma is slightly shorter than the head+mesosoma, and it is higher than long in lateral view. The tergites and hypopygium are without punctures. The prominent part of the ventral spine of the hypopygium is 5.5 times as long as broad in ventral view, with a few short setae that do not reach behind the apex of the spine.</p><p>MALES. (Fig. 7b). 1.8–2.0 mm (n=2). Similar to the female but the head is dark brown, POL 4.7 times as long as OOL. OOL is 0.3–0.4 times as long as the diameter of the lateral ocellus and 0.3–0.4 times as long as LOL. The antenna is 15-segmented (with the suture between F12 and F13 being indistinct), much longer than the body length. F1 is slightly curved, nearly equal to F2. The placodeal sensilla are present on all flagellomeres.</p><p>Gall. (Fig. 8). The gall of the sexual generation develops as a tapered oval single chambered structure on a thin and delicate stalk, measuring a total of 10–15 mm. When fresh, the gall is green and covered by soft, sparse white hair, but it becomes dark purple as it matures. According to Shachar et al. (2018), the gall shape of the sexual generation is also very similar to galls of Andricus amenti Giraud, 1859 . However, the sexual galls of the new species develop on leaves of oaks from section Cerris, while those of A. amenti form on catkin petioles of oaks from section Quercus, and their adults are also morphologically very different.</p><p>Biology. Only the sexual generation is known from galls on Q. trojana . Fresh galls become apparent from the end of May, and adult wasps emerged in the mid-June under laboratory conditions.</p><p>Host plant. Quercus trojana .</p><p>Distribution. Currently known only from Türkiye. Additionally, sexual generation galls of the new species were also collected in Israel on Quercus libani G.Olivier and Quercus cerris L. However, no a formal description of this species was made as only one adult was reared (Shachar et al. 2018).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/FD7087E7FFB73E19EFA5F9FB21E58F2F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
