This small form was reared from the same gall as that described 

 under R . capitata Felt and it is presumably an inquiline. 

 The species may possibly occur largely in the smaller galls com-

Male. Length 1.5 mm. Antennae as long as the body, sparsely

 fourth longer than the basal enlargement, which latter has a length 

 one-half greater than its diameter; terminal segment produced,
