Gall in Genista scorpius. La Pe?a, Huesca, Arag?n, Spain. Pyrenees about 1000 meters. The gall sizes about 4-5 mm. What kind of insect (or mite) can produce it?  Thanks. |

According to the book "Les galles de France" de Dauphin & Aniotsbehere, I think this could be the gall of Dasineura scorpii, a cecidomid that creates spherical woody galls at the end of the shots or in the axila of the leaves in Genista scorpius. Miquel |

I wanted to say wooly, not woody of course. |
