The results of the investigations have determined two eriophyoid walnut leaf mites: complex erineum and blister gall. They have caused two types of damages induced by the mite's feeding. Anatomical analysis have established that blister galls were of intermediate type - between pouch and typical blister gall in their histological structure and by their origin. The morphologies of erineum and gall, peripheral structures and their anatomy have been compared with the normal leaves of walnut.
