Abstract: We report for the ﬁrst time cylindrical galls of Youngomyia pouteriae Maia, 2001 (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) on Pouteria caimito (Ruiz & Pav.) Radlk. (Sapotaceae) in Peru. Youngomyia pouteriae were exclusively found in the Atlantic Forest biome, in restinga areas of Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. In this study, the geographic distribution of this galling species is extended to the western Amazon lowland rainforest in Peru.
