During faunistic surveys of insects associated with halophytes in the tidal flats of the Ariake Sea coast, we found that two species, Coleophora serinipennella (Lepidoptera: Coleophoridae) and Baris scolopacea (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) induce stem galls on Atriplex patens (Amaranthaceae). This is the new host plant records for the two species. Because galls induced by the two species are very similar in size, they were difficult to identify the inducer in appearance.
