Abstract

A new species of oak gall wasp, Cynips baskalei sp. n. (Cynipidae: Cynipini), was de- scribed from Turkey. Only asexual females of the species are known and induce galls on leaves of Quercus macranthera Fisch. & Mey. ex Hohen., Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl. and Quercus pubescens Willd. SEM images, data on the diagnosis, distribution, and biology of the new species were provided in this study.
