Biorhiza pallida and Diplolepsis pallida are not synonyms #354

Biorhiza pallida and Diplolepsis pallida are non synonyms

Biorhiza pallida seems to have been incorrectly synonymized with Diplolepsis pallida. The former is seems to be a European cynipid wasp that forms galls on oaks, and the latter a European cynipid wasp that forms galls on roses. I'm not an expert on either though, so maybe I'm missing some recent changes in taxonomy.

Ugh, "are not synonyms".

Fauna Europaea indicates that the 2 are homotypic synonyms: http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/taxon.php?guid=urn:lsid:faunaeur.org:taxname:197501#

And from the authorship this seems very true, so I am closing the issue as invalid until we get contradicting evidence.
