Weidel (1911) gives a detailed account of the histology of 
the gall of disticha, stating that Lacaze-Duthiers (1853) and 
Ktistenmacher (1894) had also studied this gall structure. 
In my own analysis of Lacaze-Duthiers’ paper I question 
whether precise determinations may be made of the material 
with which this early author worked. 
In Darboux and Houard’s publication (1907) of Giraud’s 
Galles de Cynipides, figures 9 and 10 on plate 22 are good 
illustrations of galls of disticha, altho they were erroneously 
labelled Cynips agama. Bayer (1908) has pointed out this 
error and Houard (1908) has confirmed this interpretation. 
I suggest that the Reaumur references (Reaumur 1737, 
Mem. Ins. 3: 416, 440, 445, 447, 448, pi. 35 figs. 3, 4) given 
by several European authors are not interpretable with any 
certainty as Cynips divisa, C. agama, or C. disticha.
