Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Automatic taxobox

Belonocnema is a genus of oak gall wasps in the family Cynipidae. There are three described species: B. treatae, B. fossoria and B. kinseyi.[1][2] These species are found in the United States from Texas, east to Florida.[1]

Belonocnema species induce galls on oaks and have both sexual and asexual generations.[1][2] A number of inquiline, parasitoid, and hyperparasitoid wasp species have been reared from Belonocnema galls.[2]

The genus was first named and described by Gustav Mayr in 1881 with Belonocnema treatae as the type species.[1][3] The taxonomy of the species in the genus has been subject to different interpretations but now appears resolved through study of the morphology, ecology, and genetics of the genus.[1] The genus Dryorhizoxenus, described by William Ashmead, is considered a synonym of Belonocnema, with its type species, D. floridanus, included in B. treatae.[1][4]
