Remarks Horsemint not a host: unable to find any new infection on the roots. From condition of "cysts" it is most probable the "cysts" are from the reinoculation on 1976 Jul 6. Larvae were also seen half-emerged from these "cysts" but only two showed movement. Filled and fixed 1976 Nov 8. Specimens kept in lab but not deposited in Collection.
