Insect damage types, revised from ref. 8 with five additions, as indicated

Damage type no.

Description

External feeding

25

Constant width, elongate, and branching

26

Free feeding

27

Linear, >2 mm in length, (sub)parallel to primary vein*

29

Window feeding, generalized

30

Window feeding, polylobate*

31

Window feeding, with reaction rim, round to subround*

Hole feeding

1

Small, (<1 mm maximum diameter) (formerly "small, ovoidal or circular")

2

Medium (1 to 5 mm maximum diameter) (formerly "generalized, unpatterned" and 1-5 mm range of "elliptical")

3

Medium (1 to 5 mm maximum diameter), polylobate (formerly "small, polylobate") (Fig. 5 b and d)

4

Large, (>5 mm maximum diameter) (formerly "large, ovoidal or circular" and >5 mm range of "elliptical")

5

Large, (>5 mm maximum diameter), polylobate

6

Bud feeding

7

Curvilinear

8

Elongated slot (length > 2.5 ´ width)

9

Polymorphic, generally ellipses >2 mm maximum diameter

10

Ring

11

Thick rim of necrotic tissue

Margin feeding

12

Generalized, usually cuspate

13

Of leaf apex

14

To primary vein

15

Trenched or otherwise deeply incised (Fig. 5a)

Skeletonization

16

General, reaction rim weakly developed

17

General, reaction rim well developed (Fig. 5a)

19

Broad, with rectangular pattern

20

Curvilinear

22

Linear (formerly "linear pattern")

23

Multiple, subparallel, curvilinear tracks

24

Ovoidal, adjacent to midvein

Mining

35

Blotch, with a central chamber

36

Blotch, large (>2 cm diameter), no central chamber (Fig. 5d)

37

Blotch, with serpentine frass trail (Fig. 5b)*

38

Circular, with case

41

Serpentine A; length long, undulatory, frass particulate

42

Serpentine B; length medium, width rapidly increasing, margin irregular

43

Serpentine C; length short, frass trail solid

44

Serpentine D; length long, frass tightly sinusoidal, confined to median 1/4 of mine or less

Galling

32

On blade, other than primary or secondary veins (Fig. 5d)

33

On primary vein(s) only

34

On secondary vein(s) only

55

On petiole (Fig. 5c)*

Piercing and sucking

46

Scale or puncture (<2 mm diameter), with circular depression

Damage type numbers are not sequential in order to retain consistency with another study (1).

*Damage type not reported in ref. 2. That paper included damage types both from quantitative (field censusing of dicots) and from qualitative collecting (on all host plants), whereas the present report uses quantitative data from dicots only. Therefore, four damage types from ref. 2 are not included here. Damage type 55 only occurred on an unidentified leaf and so is excluded from all analyses except for the comparison of absolute numbers of gall types (Table 1, first row only).

Substantive revision of damage type and/or description given in ref. 2. The earlier description is provided in quotations. Other descriptions are the same as in ref. 2 or are only slightly revised here.
