Other Sawflibs (Tenihredinidce) Found on Easpbekkies. 



Five species of sawflies may be found now and again on the 

 raspberry, but none have so far done any harm. They are, Nematus 

 pallidiventris. Fallen ; Emphytus rufocinctus, Eetz. ; Eiwpliytus perla, 

 Klug. ; Gladius hrullmi, Dbm. ; and Fenusa pumila, Kl. 



The larva of N. pallidiventris. Fallen, is green and much wrinkled, 

 with a dark green median line with an almost white line on each 

 side ; head brown ; eyes black and with three rows of hairs on each 

 segment. It is found in May and June on various plants, notably 

 Geum. Buckton records it from Gloucester and Clydesdale. The 

 thorax is black, yellowish at the sides ; the abdomen yellowish-brown 

 witli black bands ; antennse black, legs yellowish-brown, the apex of 

 the hind tibise and the mid and hind tarsi black. Length 6'5 mm. 

 The larva of E. rufocinctus is white with a dull grey back, and feeds 

 in August and September and also occurs on roses. That of E. perla 

 is olive, whitish at the sides, and occurs in June and July. Gladius 

 Irullmi is found in spring, and its larvae have been found on the 

 raspberry a few times in June and July ; they are brown and white 

 with a black head. Fenusa pumila now and again is seen mining 

 the leaves of the raspberry from July to October, but chiefly occurs 

 on brambles. (Pveports on Economic Zoology, Journal S. E. Agri.
