Neuroterus is a genus of gall wasps that induce galls on oaks in which the wasp larvae live and feed. Some species produce galls that fall off the host plant and 'jump' along the ground due to the movement of the larvae within. Neuroterus saltatorius—formerly named Cynips saltatorius—produces such Mexican jumping bean-like jumping galls about 1 to 1.
Neuroterus est un genre d'insectes appartenant à l'ordre des hyménoptères, à la famille des cynipidés. Ces petits insectes sont responsables de la formation de galles notamment sur les chênes.
