The genus Odontocynips Kieffer, 1910 (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae, Cynipini) in Panama, with redescription of Cynips championi Cameron 1883
“
Odontocynips hansoni Pujade-Villar, 2008 (Figs. 3 & 5E-H)
Galls of O. hansoni are irregular, large swellings of oak stems (Fig. 50); internally there are a few scat-tered larval cells (Fig. 5H). They differ from the galls of a championi in being more regular and much less cluster-like. Furthermore, according to our sampling data in Panama, while the galls of a championi are very common the galls of O. hansoni are rare.
