Druon pattoni is a species of gall wasp in the family Cynipidae, found in the United States. It forms galls on Quercus chapmanii and Quercus stellata,[1] as well as tentatively on Quercus margarettae and Quercus sinuata var. breviloba.[2] Only the asexual generation is known, which develop in leaf galls that mature in October to November, after which the adults begin to emerge.[1]
