microstigma, Wlk.—This and the preceding species—C. 
regius, Nees—are of general occurrence in oak-galls, as 
probably might be inferred from the list of synonyms. 
Megastigmus dorsalis, Fabr. = Bohemanni, Ratz. = 
wanthopygus, Férst.—This species has been bred from most 
oak-galls. Dr. Mayr describes six varieties, and says: 
“A. terminalis, a single specimen in July of the same 
year, var. (f).’ Mr. Walker seems to have had a succession 
of emergences: it occurred with him from July of the first 
year to. June of the second. I have only bred it in June, 
July, and August of the first year, and then commonly. It is 
curious this species should not affect this gall so much in 
Germany, as in Britain it is especially common in it; e.g. 
Walker’s 1560 specimens compared to Mayr’s 1, with his 
numerous correspondents: it is also unnoticed by Ratzeburg 
in connection with this gall. 
Eupelmide. 
Eupelmus urozonus, Dalm.—This species is figured in the 
‘Entomologist,’ vi. 226, from one of A. H. Haliday’s draw- 
ings. It may be bred commonly from these galls in the 
summer. Ratzeburg says of E. azureus, a synonym of this 
species, that it is hyper-parasitic in this “and- other galls on 
Eurytoma and Microgaster. 
Pteromalide. 
In addition to the fourteen species mentioned by Walker, 
Ratzeburg gives -the following, besides several doubtful 
instances; but owing to the immense number of species, 
and to the very close resemblance between many, the question 
of synonymy must be difficult; but as with the Torymide, 
so with the Pteromalide, several varieties and species are 
recorded under different names; but in this genus we have 
no Mayr to follow at present.
