The analysis on nine inventories on the richness and diversity of galling herbivores in Brazil accounted for 806 gall systems occurring in 443 host-plant species from 74 plant families. This checklist of the Brazilian gall morphotypes proposes seven standardized morphotypes and five additional shapes that group the majority of the three-dimensional shapes reported in literature. Criteria are proposed to standardize the terminology, and a critical analysis is provided aiming to avoid possible inconsistencies in order to generate easily comparable data in future inventories. The morphotypes are herein catalogued in alphabetical order, accompanied by a conceptual definition, an illustration, and examples that best represent the shape. It is proposed that the inventories should present at least the (1) host-plant species, (2) galling herbivore species or its identification to the lowest possible taxonomic level, (3) host-plant galled organ and gall position, (4) gall morphotype, (5) gall color and registration of indumentum when present, (6) gall phenological and developmental data, (7) association with other trophic levels, and (8) additional information, such as dimension, and number of chamber(s).
对巴西瘿蚊食草动物丰富度和多样性的9份清单进行的分析涵盖了74个植物科443种寄主植物中出现的806个瘿蚊系统。这份巴西瘿蚊形态类型清单提出了7种标准化形态类型和5种其他形状，它们将文献中报道的大多数三维形状进行了归类。提出了标准化术语的标准，并进行了批判性分析，旨在避免可能出现的不一致情况，以便在未来的清单中生成易于比较的数据。在此，这些形态类型按字母顺序编目，同时附有概念定义、插图以及最能代表该形状的示例。建议清单应至少列出：（1）寄主植物物种；（2）瘿蚊食草动物物种或尽可能低分类水平的鉴定；（3）寄主植物被瘿的器官和瘿的位置；（4）瘿蚊形态类型；（5）瘿的颜色以及存在时的表皮记录；（6）瘿的物候和发育数据；（7）与其他营养级的关联；（8）其他信息，如尺寸和室数。
