Bystracoccus mataybae (Eriococcidae, Hemiptera) induce galls on Matayba guianensis Aubl. (Sapindaceae), an abundant plant species of the Cerrado. The galling insect is parthenogenetic and has three instars throughout its development, all of them occurring on the same host in a synchronized cycle. Stem galls are induced by first instar nymphs (crawlers) at the dry season. When the leaf sprouting begins, the second instar nymph moves to the leaflets to induce a new gall cycle. At the leaflets, the second nymph becomes adult, gets pregnancy and die after the crawlers get out of the leaflet galls and move to stem. Thus, the objective of the study was to understand the dynamics of the structural and chemical components in Matayba g...
