Notes:
Group of four hard, pale green galls each with a brown, apical mark, on underside of leaf of Pedunculate Oak.
Galls: 4/5.5mm diam, nearly globular (slightly elongated), apparently minutely warty but this is mostly due to pale spots within the distal half of the wall; chamber divided by thin layer into two halves, larva in proximal half.
