_ Irregular or bottle-shaped galls on stem or leaf. Mr. G. Parkin 
has sent me this gall from Wakefield, and Mr. F. Netherwood 
a good supply from Huddersfield, but I have not been able to 
rear the flies, and they do not seem to be known. 
This brings the number of Yorkshire species up to 63, and 
I have several others that await determination, as well as many 
additional localities for recorded ones, but these must await a future 
paper. On October roth I read a paper on Galls before the 
Lancashire and Cheshire Entomological Society, and it was accepted 
that I should act as Recorder for the two counties. I shall be 
pleased, therefore, to receive galls from persons residing in 
Lancashire or Cheshire. Botanists have ample opportunities for 
observing galls, and now is a time when many may be found. 
Persons who have sent me galls not acknowledged in the above list 
must not think that their assistance has been overlooked or not 
 algogan If their help has not been acknowledged it is because 
am in some doubt yet as to the identity of the species ; but every 
little bit is nee and will be used i in due course.
