Daphnephila is a genus of gall midge that appears in the Palearctic and Oriental biogeographic realms.[5] Daphnephila species create leaf and stem galls on species of laurel plants, particularly in Machilus.[5] Based on analysis on sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, it has been suggested that in this genus, the stem-galling habit is a more ancestral state as opposed to the leaf-galling habit.[3]
Daphnephila was first described in 1905 by French entomologist Jean-Jacques Kieffer.[1] It contains at least nine described species from India, Japan, and Taiwan, and many more undescribed species are known.[2] The genus appears to have originated tropically and dispersed to Japan through Taiwan.[3]
