Key Points

To establish and describe the new oak gall wasp genus Striatoandricus and characterize two novel species discovered in Mexico.
Evaluated morphological diagnostic characteristics to differentiate the proposed genus and associated species.
Generated and analyzed DNA sequence data to provide molecular evidence for generic classification.
Established the oak gall wasp genus Striatoandricus supported by congruent morphological and molecular datasets.
Formally described two newly identified Mexican species belonging to the new genus.

Abstract

section. Descriptions of the genus and diagnostic characters, including DNA sequence data, are presented. This new genus is supported by both morphological and molecular data.
