The material was collected and biology of the pest was investigated. M. buxi has one generation in a year and hibernates in L3 or L1. Eclosion of imago is from mid April to mid May. the gall formation starts with feeding in the L2 stage and they develop by hypertrophy of pallisade tissue first and then of cells of the spongy tissue.
