Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu 1951
Description
Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu, 1951
Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu, 1951: 90, ǒ.
Distribution. China (Fujian, Hebei, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Liaoning, Shaanxi, Shandong Provinces) (Murakami 1980: 249), Japan (Honshu, Kyushu) (Yasumatsu 1951: 91; Sakagami 1952: 74; Shiraki 1952: 102; Kamiya 1959: 50; Masuda 1972: 222), Korean Peninsula (Tamura 1962: 251 pers. comm. from Rural Development Agency, Plant Environmental Institute, Department of Insects; Cho & Lee 1963: 53; Masuda 1972: 222; Kim et al. 1994: 223; Murakami et al. 1995: 278; Pujade-Villar et al. 2020a: 1215), Nepal (Ueno 2006: 510), and Taiwan (Tang et al. 2015: 138).
Remarks. Murakami (1980) provided references for each distribution record, but they were not listed in the references section.
Remarks (2). Kamiya (1959) addressed several cynipid species. However, he did not mention the distribution of any of them, except for D. kuriphilus (Japan). Hence, we have not included this reference in any other species throughout this catalogue.
Remarks (3). This species is a harmful pest for Castanea trees and many papers addressing its control have been published to date. Some of these publications indirectly mention the range of this species (e.g., Murakami et al. 1977; Kato & Hijii 1993; Moriya et al. 2003; Zhu et al. 2007; Matsuo et al. 2011).
Biology. Dryocosmus kuriphilus is a purely parthenogenetic species, by loss of the sexual generation from an ancestral cyclically parthenogenetic lifecycle (Murakami 1980). It induces large integral galls in the buds, petioles and leaves of Castanea species (Table 1).
