 ment and the peculiar ovipositor, all serve to differentiate this

Kronomyia populi Felt 

 191 1 Felt, E. P. Econ. Ent. Jour., 4:476-77 



This peculiar form was reared May 5, 191 1 from a whitish larva 

 found in punky poplar wood at Nassau, N. Y., April 12, 191 1. Only 

 one larva was observed and this presented the general appearance 

 of a small Oligarces larva just after it had escaped from the mother 

 larva in early spring. See the above citation for a description of 

 the female; also plate 13, figure 6.
