Rhodites similis, new species.

An irregularly rounded, brown or brownish yellow, pithy gall on the smaller stems of an unknown wild rose. They vary greatly in size and shape, from a small pea-like form to a more or less globular or oblong shape, some of them being an inch or more in length. There is no consistency in their shape; some are perfectly round or oblong or of various irregular shapes.

Twenty-seven specimens, reared July 27, 1883, from galls collected by Mr. Lawrence Bruner at Point of Rocks, Wyoming.
