New gall-inducing species Neolasioptera were identified on native plants in Brazil, highlighting their ecological role.

Five new species of neolasioptera were identified, illustrating biodiversity in Brazil's fauna.
The species include neolasioptera floricola and neolasioptera hexasepali, both gall-inducers on native plants.
These species contribute to the ecological dynamics of their respective host plants belonging to different families.
This research expands knowledge on the neotropical insect diversity and their interactions with native flora.
