Les larves qui en éclosent provoquent une croissance anormale des cellules végétales, ce qui entraîne la formation de galles de différentes formes, suivant l’espèce de Cynips qui en est responsable. 3, record 1, French, - gallicole

According to Laurent Lesage, entomologist with Agriculture Canada, the common term "gall fly" could refer to any insect, not necessarily a "fly" in the true sense of the term, which produces galls in a specific plant. If the recipient of the French translation of this term requires a more "down-to-earth" equivalent, he or she may opt for "mouche du chardon" or "mouche des fruits", depending on the host plant of the insect. If however he or she prefers a more generic term with a scientific flavour, then "téphrite des tiges" or "téphrite gallicole" would be used. Caution must be exercised when the author of the English text is referring to a species in particular (usually the Latin term is provided, e.g. Europhora cardui), in which case a suitable French equivalent would be "téphrite du chardon" or even "mouche du chardon" (depending on the linguistic level dictated by the text), "chardon" (thistle) being the preferred host-plant of this species. Only the Latin term is official; none of the French or English terms are. 2, record 15, English, - gall%20fly
