Abstract

Pseudodineura parva (Norton) (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae: Nematinae), Phytomyza multifidae Sehgal (Diptera: Agromyzidae), and Cerastis tenebrifera (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) were reared from wood anemone (Ranunculaceae: Anemone quinquefolia L.), and Monophadnus aequalis MacGillivray (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae: Blennocampinae) from sharp-lobed hepatica (A. acutiloba (DC.) G. Lawson) for the first time. The rearing of P. multifidae represents a new U.S. record, and the sawfly records extend the known range of both species south to northwestern Alabama. Details of rearings of all four species are provided, along with descriptions of the sawfly larvae. Two parasitoids, Pnigalio flavipes (Ashmead) and P. pallipes (Provancher) (Eulophidae), were reared from Phytomyza multifidae.
