 hemispherical when along side of a vein, diameter 2 to 3 mm; at

This seems quite different from the following. Professor Jarvis 



(in litt.) informs me that he has found this mite, originally 



described by Cook from Cuba, in nearly every state from Ontario 



to Louisiana. 



50 A pocket-gall like that on S a 1 i x nigra, see our no. 134. 

 Usually very abundant on leaves.
