Examination of the life history of this probable ginkgoalean–kalligrammatid oviposition interaction indicates that the spacing of the eggs in substrate tissues disfavored inter‐larval contact, but little can be said of defense and counterdefense strategies between the plant host and the newly hatched immatures.
