▲Notes
Andricus clavigerus
The caption calls this the sexgen gall of punctatus, which is also pictured elsewhere with a distinct appearance. This is considered likely to be intended to be clavigera sexgen based on the labelling in the text, but that also refers to the wrong image (Plate 2 (5) rather than (6))
