(Lamiaceae), Dasineura auriniae sp. nov. from flower galls on Aurinia petraea (Ard.) Schur. (Brassicaceae), Gephyraulus capsellae sp. nov. from flower galls on Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Med. (Brassicaceae), Jaapiella clematidicola sp. nov. from swollen leaf buds of Clematis flammula L. (Ranunculaceae), Jaapiella erysimicola sp. nov. from swollen flower buds of Erysimum graecum Boiss. et Heldr. (Brassicaceae), Janetiella onosmae sp. nov. from rosette leaf galls on Onosma frutescens Lam. (Boraginaceae), Macrolabis behen sp. nov. from terminal leaf galls on Silene behen L. (Caryophyllaceae) and Macrolabis pyricola sp. nov. from terminal leaf galls on Pyrus salicifolia Lois. (Rosaceae). In the island of Samos Lasioptera carophila F.
