Gullan1984: pp.10 ( Adult (F) ) [Adult females and female galls of Apiomorpha]

Systematics: The adult female is characterized by having: abdominal segment IX longer ventrally than dorsally; abdomen attenuate not curvilinearly tapered to base of anal lobes; anal ring not concealed by sclerotized shield; anal lobes not papillose; ventral spine-like setae never in complete row across segment VIII and absent from segment IX; hind legs <1100µ long; multilocular pores predominantly with other than 7-loculi; antennae 4-segmented (Gullan, 1984).
Structure: Female gall cylindrical to ovoid, apex truncate. Male gall is tubular with apex dilated (Gullan, 1984).
Biology: Female galls are found on stems of host plant while galls of the male occur on the leaf near the midrib (Gullan, 1984).
General Remarks: Gullan (1984) photographed male and female galls and described the adult female.
