This woody stem gall is produced by the tree by the influence of this bug. It is female and neotenic with no wings, eyes or functional legs. She will live in this gall for 2 - 3 years and never escape. She is sexually reproductive in this undeveloped body.

I have...... Rafflesia arnoldi (http://gomumu.blogspot.com/2014/10/bunga...) and Amorphopallus (http://gomumu.blogspot.com/2014/10/Bunga...)
This species has only one image on google so quite hard to ID these genus of galls. http://agspsrv34.agric.wa.gov.au/Ento/im...
Thank you I.cook
Thanks Leanne. I saw another group including some skinny ones that maybe males. They're an intriguing creature that I don't understand very well. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/130...
