XIV, 3 Felt: New Philipjnne Gall Midges 289 
The single female, reared from a stem gall on a wild cucurbit, 
is presumably undescribed, and there is little question that it 
is the producer of the gall. The insect is remarkable because 
of the unusually long, somewhat falcate, terminal lobes of the 
ovipositor. 
Asphondylia grewias sp. nov. 
Male. — Length, 1.5 millimeters. Antennae probably nearly as 
long as body, sparsely haired, basal portion, at least, dark brown, 
presumably of 14 segments, fifth with a length four times its 
diameter and with moderately high circumfila. Palpi probably 
triarticulate. Mesonotum dark reddish brown. Scutellum and 
postscutellum yellowish brown. Abdomen dark brown, sparsely 
haired. Wings unusually broad and rather thickly clothed with 
fuscous hairs. Third vein unites with margin near apex, fifth 
at distal third, its branch at basal fourth; fork unusually long. 
Halteres fuscous yellowish. Legs dark brown. Claws long, 
moderately stout, pulvilli as long as claws. Genitalia: Basal 
clasp segment short, stout, and bidentate, with a distinct rudi- 
mentary tooth near the bottom of the excavation; dorsal plate 
divided, the lobes irregularly triangular, lobes of ventral plate 
rounded. 
Type. — Cecid. a2880. New York State collection. 
Luzon, Laguna Province, Mount Maquiling, September 23, 
1917, College of Agriculture accession No. 18137 (Uichanco) . 
The one male described above was reared from a leaf gall on 
Gre 2 via stylocarpa Warb. The species is remarkable in this 
genus because of the unusually broad wings, these having a 
length nearly one-half greater than the diameter. The specimen 
was badly broken and rumpled. 
Contarinia saltata sp. nov. 
Male. — Length, 1.25 millimeters. Antenna; one-fourth longer 
than body, thickly haired, reddish brown, of 14 segments, fifth 
having stems with a length equal to, and,i>ne-half greater than, 
their diameters, respectively. Basal enlargement subglobose, 
distal enlargement somewhat produced, both with moderately 
long circumfila ; basal portion of terminal segment with the stem 
short, distal enlargement irregularly fusiform and tapering 
slightly to a very broad, broadly rounded apex. Length of first 
segment of palpi about two and one-half times its diameter; 
second a little longer, slenderer; third a little longer than second ; 
fourth as long as third and somewhat dilated apicad. Mesonotum 
dark reddish brown. Scutellum reddish orange. Postscutellum
