1. An overview of inventories of gall-inducing insects in Brazil: looking for patterns and identifying knowledge gaps
We compiled published Brazilian gall-inducing insect inventories aiming to understand trends and biases in this field research and to investigate the factors that potentially explain the diversity of gall-inducing insects among different sampling sites. A total of 51 studies with gall-inducing insect inventories were compiled for Brazil, which sampled 151 si

2. Gall-inducing insects of restinga areas (Atlantic Forest) in Brazil: economic importance
Abstract Many gall-inducing insects have been reported as pests in the Old World and North America, although few such examples are known from South America. A list of gall-inducing insects of potential economic importance, with a focus on those of restinga environments, was compiled using Maia (2013a) as starting point and updated with the database “Thomps

3. Insect gall occurrence in savanna and forest remnant sites of Hidrolândia, GO, Brazil Central
Abstract In this study we perform an inventory of the insect galls in savanna and forest sites of Hidrolândia, Goiás, Brazil. We found 150 insect gall morphotypes, distributed on 39 botanical families and 104 plant species. Among the insect galls, 81 gall morphotypes were recorded in the savanna site and 73 in the forest site. The plant taxa richest in ins

4. Diversity of insect galls associated with coastal shrub vegetation in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
ABSTRACT Surveys in the coastal sandy plains (restingas) of Rio de Janeiro have shown a great richness of galls. We investigated the galling insects in two preserved restingas areas of Rio de Janeiro state: Parque Estadual da Costa do Sol and Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural Fazenda Caruara. The collections were done each two months, from June 2011

5. Insect galls of a protected remnant of the Atlantic Forest tableland from Rio de Janeiro State (Brazil)
ABSTRACT Insect galls of a protected remnant of the Atlantic Forest tableland from Rio de Janeiro State (Brazil): Galling insects in Rio de Janeiro state are known by their great diversity, despite most of the surveys have been done in restinga. This paper investigated the insect galls from a remnant of Atlantic Forest located in São Francisco de Itabapoana

6. Los insectos galícolas en Schinus fasciculata (Anacardiaceae) en el Espinal del centro de Argentina
Galls are the most complex interaction between plants and insects during the course of their evolution. The species of galling insects are found in the most of biogeographic regions, but mainly in xeric habitats, as the Espinal eco-region, located in the Pampa Biogeographic Region, Chacoan Subregion. Schinus fasciculata (Griseb.) I. M. Johnst. (Anacardiaceae

7. Galling insects are bioindicators of environmental quality in a Conservation Unit
Galls are well distributed across the World and among plant families. Their diversity can support the status of conservation of an area as an urban park, once inventories are presented. These inventories also help to understand the morphological patterns of the galls, based on their most common shape, color, host botanical families, inducers and galled organ

8. Insect galls of restinga areas of Ilha da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Insect galls of restinga areas of Ilha da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This study carried out an insect gall inventory in restinga areas of Ilha da Marambaia, in the municipality of Mangaratiba, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Sampling was carried out monthly from April 2010 to March 2011 along the full extension of seven beaches. A total number of 147 gall mo

9. Host plants of insect-induced galls in areas of cerrado in the state of Goiás, Brazil
Most studies of the interactions between plants and gall-inducing (galling) insects have focused on the entomological aspects, few having addressed the diversity of galls in relation to the characteristics of the host plants. The objective of this study was to analyze the richness and composition of the community of host plants of galls in areas of cerrado (

10. Gall-inducing insects of an Araucaria Forest in southern Brazil
Gall-inducing insects of an Araucaria Forest in southern Brazil. Diversity of galling insects is reported for the first time in an Araucaria Forest site. We address gall characteristics, host plant identification and the inducer identification and provide additional information about sites of gall occurrence in a mosaic of continuous forest and natural fores

11. Diversity patterns of gall-inducing insects in the Cerrado: the importance of host plant community composition / Padrões de diversidade de insetos galhadores no Cerrado: a importância da comunidade de plantas
The idea that host plants influence the richness of galling is widespread and has several approaches in literature. Many of these approaches take into account the hosts richness, the density of vegetation, plant species composition and architecture of plants, as factors that influence the diversity patterns of gall-inducing insects. In this study we investig

12. A distribuiÃÃo das formigas cortadeiras (Atta chephalotes) e seu papel na regeneraÃÃo de um trecho de Floresta AtlÃntica Nordestina
The leaf-cutting ants are considered important herbivores in Neotropical primary forests because they promote spatial and temporal heterogeneity of resources such as light, nutrients and soil. Despite their known importance, their distribution in early secondary forests and their role on forest regeneration are still poorly studied. This work was developed i
