This beautiful little gall has a wide range over New South Wales, and is sometimes found massed together in bunches, when many are often aborted and irregular in form; when scattered over the twigs they have the typical jug or urn shape. Found at Tamworth, Uralla, Goulburn, Wellington, and Hay, New South Wales; in the last-named case upon the box tree {Eucalyptus hicolor); in Victoria, at Werribee, upon Eiwalyptiis leticoxylon and E. goniocalyx by C. French, junior ; and in South Australia, at Murray Biidge, on Eucalyptus gracilis and E. uncinaia by Tepper. Female galls attached at the rounded base to the twigs and branches, with the basal portion rounded, oval, about two-thirds of the height, then contracted into a narrow neck, but at the apex swelling out into a flat disc, roughened on the flattened summit with the apical orifice surrounded by a small nipple. Height, 1 inch. Fig, too.—Apiomorpfia urnalis, Tepper. Female coccid dull yellow, slender
