Cynipini is a tribe of gall wasps. These insects induce galls in plants of the beech and oak family, Fagaceae.[2] They are known commonly as the oak gall wasps.[3] It is the largest cynipid tribe, with about 936[4] to 1000[3] recognized species, most of which are associated with oaks.[3] The tribe is mainly native to the Holarctic.[4]
Cynipini wasps can act as ecosystem engineers. Their galls can become hosts of inquilines, and the wasps themselves are hosts to parasitoids.[5]
Most of these wasps undergo cyclical parthenogenesis, sometimes reproducing sexually, and sometimes producing young without fertilization.[3] [6]
