This is the first record of Andricus mukaigawae (Mukaigawa, 1913) (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) in Myanmar. This is also the first record of the tribe Cynipini (which induces galls on oaks and their relatives) in the country. Galls of A. mukaigawae were collected from Quercus griffithii Hook.f. & Thomson ex Miq. in Tedim Township, Falam District, during a field expedition to the Chin Hills in northwestern Myanmar. Since the species diversity of potential host plants, Quercus and allies, is high in the mountainous areas of the north to northwestern Myanmar where galls of A. mukaigawae were found, further field surveys in these areas will help uncover the species diversity of Cynipidae in Myanmar.
