Do you guys know anything about the mouthparts of Cynipidae?
I can't find anything online, but I know they don't feed so I guess I could assume the mouthparts are vestigal..?

Yeah, the mouthparts are vestigial. All I can find both in books and on websites is that they're chewing mouthparts.SOnerd wrote:Do you guys know anything about the mouthparts of Cynipidae?

There is never a new list; it stays the same. What changes in the second year of "Field Guide" events is the allowance of TWO field guides and TWO sheets of paper.
