Callirhytis parvifoliae n. sp.
Gall--A small rounded gall on the midvein of a leaf, half projecting above and half below the surface of the leaf, and usually but not always, the portion above the upper surface, is deeply indented. It is polythalamous and contains several larval cells all radiating from the centre. Diameter .12 to .15 inch.

This gall is not rare on Q. parvifolia [Quercus chapmanii].
