Speciation in Nearctic oak gall wasps is frequently correlated with changes in host plant, host organ, or both.

A. K. G. Ward, R. K. Bagley, S. P. Egan, G. R. Hood, J. R. Ott, K. M. Prior, S. I. Sheikh, K. L. Weinersmith, L. Zhang, Y. M. Zhang, A. A. Forbes

This study investigates host shifts in Nearctic oak gall wasps and finds frequent shifts between host plants and organs, suggesting host shifts drive speciation in this group.

The role of ecology and geography in the evolution of habitat isolation and sexual isolation among sister species of host-plant-specific insects

L. Zhang, G. R. Hood, J. R. Ott, S. P. Egan

The paper examines how ecology and geography influence habitat and sexual isolation in closely related gall-forming wasp species, finding that sympatric species with different host plants show the strongest isolation.
