Resseliella liriodendri
tulip tree leaf spot gall midge
Resseliella liriodendri is a gall midge in the family Cecidomyiidae that induces leaf spot galls on tulip trees (Liriodendron). The species was described by Osten Sacken in 1862. Unlike its congener Resseliella maxima, which is a destructive pest of soybean, this species is associated with a woody host plant and has not been reported as an agricultural pest.
