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, as well as tentatively on Quercus margarettae and Quercus sinuata var. breviloba. Only the asexual generation is known, which develop in leaf galls that mature in October to November, after which the adults begin to emerge. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Druon pattoni sighting in Austin on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1205th most-seen of the 1624 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Druon pattoni is recorded against all the insects logged in Austin (10 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
