Dasineura communis

Dasineura urnicola

Acinacistyla coryli

Dasineura pudibunda

Dasyneura communis Felt

This species was reared in early spring of 1909 from jars containing soft maple, Acer rubrum, leaves bearing thickened pouch galls along the veins. The galls are often reddish (pi. 2, fig. 6) on the upper side and have a length of one-fourth inch or more. It was also obtained from a number of jars containing various galls and debris. There is grave doubt as to this species causing the gall mentioned above. A species of Polygnotus was reared from this gall.
