Aur. 10 GALL-INHABITING CYNIPID WASPS —WELD 95 



Q. laurifolia at Gainesville, Ocala, and Clearwater. Galls collected 

 November 20, 1919, at Daytona on Q. hmnfoUa and sent to Wash- 

 ington and Evanston for rearing gave flies May 23, 26, June \\ and 15, 

 1920. From galls collected at Savannah, Ga., November 2G, 1919, 

 living flies were cut March 14, 1921, having pupated the previous 

 November. Galls on Q. myrtlfolid collected at Daytona November 

 20, 1919. ga\'e flies May 23, 1920, but some galls still contained larvae 

 as late as September 4, 1920, so that the emergence may be distrib- 

 uted over at least two seasons. The writer has been unable to sepa- 

 rate these reared specimens from the types of infuscata.

 pi. 0. fig. 5. 



This .species is here recorded from two new host oaks, Q. ruhva 

 and Q. texana, and from the following localities : Evanston, Wil- 

 mette, Glencoe, Ravinia, Fort Sheridan, Waukegan, and Glen Ellyn, 

 111.; Minneapolis (C. J. Weld), Minn.; Delevan (D. AYatt), Wis.; 

 Xoith East, Pa.; Ithaca (J. C. Bradley), Riverhead (C. R Crosby), 

 and Medina, N. Y. ; Bluemont, Va. ; Poplar Blufi", Mo. ; Hugo, Okla. ; 

 Palestine, Austin, and Mineola, Tex. ; and Troy and Dothan, Ala. 

 Galls collected at Evanston in fall of 1916 contained pupae and 

 larvae on September 17, 1917, and adults and larvae on November 

 26. Adults issued April 6 and April 22, 1918, and about 50 more 

 came out April 10 and April 18, 1919. The.se agree with the type in 

 National Museum. As the claws are simple, the second and third 

 tergites not tongue-shaped, the carinae on propodeum not angled, 

 the species is here transferred to Callirhytis. 



Brodie found the galls common about Toronto on red and black 

 oak, forest trees as well as .second growth. They appear in August, 

 mature in October dropping before the leaves, the producers emerg- 

 ing May 8 and June 24, 1888, May 1, 1889, and April 4-July 24, 

 1898, in each case from galls collected on the ground under the trees 

 the previous fall. Beutenmueller collected galls on red oak near 

 Fort Lee, N. J., in October, 1922, and cut flies out of the galls in 

 fFanuary, 1924.
