THREE NEW GALLS OF CECIDOMYIA
“

Asphondylia (asteris) recondita, n. sp.
Deformed terminal buds on the principal and the lateral branches of Aster patens. These galls consist merely in an arrest of growth and consequent accumulation of leaves, forming a bud-like body up to 10 or 15 m. m. in length. Inside I found pupae which their structure proves to be those of Asphondylia...did not succeed in rearing the fly.
