Abstract
In an early monograph of the genus Saperda Felt and Joutel (Bull. New York Mus. 74. 1904) reported that S. concolor LeConte produces galls on poplars and willows, and that S. moesta LeConte, which they considered to be a subspecies of S. populnea, produces galls on balsam poplar. Craighead provided essentially the same information (U.S. Dept. Agric. Misc. Pub. 657. 1950). In more recent references Graham et al. (Aspens. Univ. of Mich. Press. 1963) report that both S. concolor and S. moesta produce galls on poplars, while MacAloney and Ewan (U.S. For. Service Res. Paper LS-11. 1964) report them on aspens and willows.
