sexual generation
sexual generation In Cynipidae, the males and females that emerge from galls to mate and lay eggs that will become the agamic generation of parthenogenetically reproducing females. In general, sexual-stage galls follow a period of rich resources and precede a period of poor resources. Sexual individuals are generally smaller and less fecund than members of the agamic generation.
