Loew publishes (Zeitsclir. ges. Naturw. xxxiv. pp. 1-24) a revision of the 
European Trypetina, in which he discusses the generic divisions to be ad- 
mitted in that group, and, finally, gives a list of the species known to him, 
which now amount to 143. Of these a considerable number are described as 
new {vide infra'). 
Rondani (Bull. Soc. Ent. Ital. i. pp. lGl-104) discusses the species which 
have been refeil’ed to the genus GEdaspis (Loew). Q^.Jlavicans he regards 
as an Or cilia ; the type of GUdaspis is (E. multifasciata (Loew) ; (E. schineri^ 
Carpomyia vemviana (Costa), and forms the genus Carpomyia) and (E. 
wiedmanni belongs to Goniglossum (Rond.). 
Cleitamia astrolahei (Boisd.). The female of this species is described and 
figured (details) by Van der Wulp (Tijdschr. voor Ent. 2^® ser. iii. p. 118, 
pi. 4. figs. 9-12. 
Frauenfeld (Verb, zool.-bot. Ges. in Wien, xix. p. 942) notices the de- 
tection by Erber, near J anina, of a Trypcta^ which he determines as T. tenera 
(Loew), from the Pyrenees, and further identifies with T. hullans (Wied.) 
from Buenos Ayres. This identification has also been made by Loew. 
Trypeta polita (Loew) produces small cabbage-like galls on Solidago altis- 
swia, according to Osten-Sacken (Trans.- Amer. Ent. Soc. ii. p. 301).
