18 BRITISH GALL-INSECTS. 



75. Gymnetron leccabungce, L. 

 On Veronica heccahuiiga. 



76. Gymnetron linaricej Panz. (Kidd, E. M. Mag. viii. 



p. 108). 

 On Linarla vulgaris. 



11. Gymnetron Campanul(^, L. 



I have lately bred this species from inflated seed-vessels 

 of Campanula rotund) folia, inhabited by Cec. Campanulce 

 nov. spec., which Mr. J. W. H. Traill has kindly sent to

 1860, p. 132, fig. ; Miiller, E. M. Mag. vii. p. 36). 

 The common gall-heetle of the cahbage-plant. 



79. Ceuthorhynchus contractus, Marsham. 



80. ,, assiniilis, Paykull. 



The two preceding produce galls on the roots of Sinapis 

 arvensis (Kiiby and Spence, Introd. 1828, i. p. 188). There 

 must be more species of this genus which produce galls, but 

 I cannot m.eet with any British notes on the subject. Other 

 irenera of CurcuUonidcF may also include gall-makers, but 

 there is no evidence of this in my hands. The Apionidce 

 especially require investigation. 



LAMIADiE. 



81. Saperda populnea^ L. 



This Longicorn deposits its eggs into thin branches or sap-
