Distribution. USA: California (Ashmead 1896; Fullaway 1911; McCracken & Egbert 1922; Lobato-Vila et al. 2020c).
Biology. Reared from a gall ‘not unlike Neuroterus saltatorius (Edwards, 1874) occurring on Quercus agrifolia ’ (Ashmead 1896: 189). Also, from small round brown galls, 2.0 mm in diameter located on upper sides of leaves of Q. agrifolia (Fullaway 1911: 371; McCracken & Egbert 1922: 58), as well as from unknown galls on Q. garryana (Lobato-Vila et al. 2020c).
Remarks. The type material of Synergus agrifoliae was examined and the species was redescribed and illustrated by Lobato-Vila et al. (2020c: 4).
