Original data comes from a project which takes or took place as part of the DFG priority program "Exploratories for large-scale and long-term functional biodiversity research". The data is stored together with descriptive metadata, in combination called a dataset, in the project repository (https://www.bexis.uni-jena.de). Species information was extracted from that original dataset. The second paragraph is part of the metadata of the original dataset.
Invertebrate herbivores infest different plant organs of thistle species. Furthermore, parasitoid species infest herbivores that feed on thistles. Often such infestations induce generation of plant galls. Within the galls invertebrate larvae metamorphose and emerge as adult imagos.
