In the gall fly, Neuroterus lenticularis, partheno-genetic females appear early in the spring. Their eggsproduce females and males — the second fertilized eggs of these females give rise the follow-ing year to the spring parthenogenetic females. Don-caster has found that each parthenogenetic female PARTHEXOGEXESIS 177 produces eggs, all of which give rise to females or elseto males. In connection with this fact he finds thatthe eggs of some females do
