252 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



" Note on Cynips Li ffnicola. —Two supposed parasites, a 

 Callimome and a Decatoma, have long been recorded as 

 inhabiting the Devonshire gall. I have lately received from 

 Mr. Newmau two other species reared from these galls. 

 They have not yet been recorded as British, and may be new 

 species. One is a Eurytoma; the other, a Callimome, has 

 also been reared by Mr. Fitch.— Francis Walker^ (Entom. 

 vi. 101.) 



The second note is by Mr. Fitch : — 



''Additional Parasites of Cynips Lignicola.—\ have lately 

 bred seven different species of parasites— not including the 

 well-known Callimome Devoniensis of Parfitt and Decatoma 

 —from some dwarfed specimens of C. Lignicola, which I 

 collected at Burnham, Essex, last February. Mr. Walker 

 has kindly examined the insects, and finds some new to 

 Britain, if not altogether new species. The insects are — 

 First, ten specimens of Ormyrus punctiger; emerged from 

 J 8th June to SQth July. Second, one male Eurytoma (u.s.?); 

 emerged 18th April. Third, one Pteromalus; emerged 13th 

 May. Fourth, numerous specimens of a Callimome, nearly 

 allied to C. inconstans; emerged between 28th April and 

 20th June. Fifth, several females and one male of Calli- 

 mome, n.s.; emerged between 3rd and 17th April. Sixth, 

 nine specimens of a small black Hymenopteron, quite' 

 unknown to Mr. Walker,— seven females and two males; 

 emerged from middle to end of March. Seventh, one speci- 

 men; emerged 25th June; returned by Mr. Walker as n.g., 

 allied to Entedon. All these were bred from a small cluster 

 of galls on a single img.— Edward A. Filch:' (Entom. vi.
