The most astonishing feature of galls is the de- velopment of nutritive Figs. 1090—1093. — Cross sec- tions of galls, showing anatomical features: 1090, a solid cynipid gall from an oak twig, cut in half; note the radiating lines of tissue, and the central larval chamber (c); 1091, a section of an oak gall; e, epidermis; 0, cortex, the grains representing plastids (chloroplasts above and leucoplasts with prominent starch grains below); 5, protective layer of sclcrenchymatous cells;/,/', nutritive layers adjoining the larval chamber, / being a layer rich in starch, and /' a layer whose cells are rich in proteins and prominently nucleated; 1092, part of the nutritive tissue of the gall of Nematus gallorum; note the resemblance to the tissues in an intumescence; 1093, iso- lated nutritive hairs of a Cepha- loneon gall from a maple (Acer); 1091-1093, highly magnified. — 1090 after Kerner, 109 i after Lacaze-Duthiebs, 1092, 1093 after KiJsiER,.
