Andricus parmula, also known as the disc gall wasp, is a species of gall-forming wasp in the genus Andricus.[1] It induces galls in a wide selection of oak species, including hybrids.[2] The galls are disc-shaped, up to 3 mm in diameter, and pale with red streaking. Adult females emerge in April.[3]
