Genus Iteomyia Kieffer, 1913 View in CoL
The genus includes five species globally, all of which are gallers on leaves of Salix . We have had no success hatching this genus so far. One reason is that the galls, like those of Harmandiola , fail to open once they are picked, causing the larvae to be trapped inside.
