Temporal and spatial differences in gall induction on Haloxylon by Aceria haloxylonis (Acari: Eriophyidae) in the Gurbantünggüt Desert

Abstract: Flower-like galls have been observed on Haloxylon ammodendron and H. persicum in the Gurbantünggüt Desert in northwest China. The galls were induced by Aceria haloxylonis, a new species of Eriophyidae. The galls began as small protuberances at the base of new stems and on small branches. As they matured, the galls changed color from green to dark brown. Some galls on H. persicum became red. At maturity, the galls and the infected branches became desiccated. Adult females of A. haloxylonis overwintered in galls… Show more

“…The field-collected galls were placed individually in glass vials (diameter 1.5 cm and length 10.0 cm) to monitor their development in the insect laboratory of the College of Life More than 17 species of gall inducers have been recorded that damage Haloxylon forest in the world [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. These flower-like galls on H. persicum and H. ammodendron were associated with various pests that mainly belong to Psyllidae, Pyralidae, Pseudococcidae, and Thripidae.…”

“…Five types of associated flower-like galls based on morphology have been identified on Haloxylon spp. (Figure 1) [4,9,10]. Leafy-bracted galls (G1) and flower like galls (G2) appeared with high frequency on H. ammodendron, while the leafy-bracted galls (G1) and flower like galls (G2 and G3) appeared with high frequency on H. persicum [8][9][10].…”
