Extract

Monostegia quercus-coccineŒ, n .sp.

Eggs apparently inserted by a series of thrusts of the ovipostior parallel to the midrib of the leaf. The saw cuts under the upper epidermis are confluent, forming a long blotch over 1 mm. wide and about 20 mm. log, running close to the midrib. The larvæ feed gregariously, eating the lower epidermis and parenchyma.
