The same gall was published also by Uichango ^) on Callicarpa erioclona 

 Schauer of tne Philippines. 



Asphondylia strobilanthi Felt. This misshape has not been described 

 yet. I found it in the damp ravines of Mount-Gedeh near Tjibodas. The galls 

 are oblong ball-shaped swellings of the root-bark, which generally lie in great 

 numbers near one another. The surface is densily covered with long white 

 hairs. Inside there is to be found a spacious larval-chamber with a big larva. 

 The wall is thick and of a lightgreen colour. This gall is 5 m.M. long and 

 3|4-4 m.M. thick. A picture of this remarkable gall is added here by; see 

 figure 9. Dr. Koorders -) mentions this same misshape in his Flora of 

 Tjibodas, where it is fairly common.
