Euura myrsiniticola is a species of sawfly belonging to the family Tenthredinidae (common sawflies). The larvae feed internally in a gall formed on the leaves of whortle-leaved willow ( Salix myrsinites).
The pea-sized gall is smooth and globular and occurs on whortle-leaved willow (Salix myrsinites). It is large in relation to the size of the leaf and protrudes approximately one-third above the leaf surface, and two-thirds below. [1] [2]
The gall or sawfly has been recorded from Finland, Norway, Russia ( Kolguyev Island), Scotland and Sweden. [3]
