maple gall midges
Acericecis is a genus of gall midges in the family Cecidomyiidae. The genus contains five described species, four extant and one known only from fossils. All extant species induce characteristic eyespot galls on maple (Acer) leaves. The genus was established by American entomologist Raymond Gagné in 1983, with Acericecis ocellaris as the type species. Species are restricted to the Holarctic region.
