The author proves that if \(X\) is an algebraic curve and \(D\) is a collection of pairwise distinc points on \(X\), all relative GW-classes lie in the tautological ring \(RH_{*}(\overline{M}_{g,n})\). In the presence of odd insertions one can obtain classes inside a piece \(H^{i,j}(\overline{M}_{g,n})\) of the Hodge diamond with \(i\neq j\). They are called unbalanced. The author shows that all unbalanced GW-classes of curves vanish. Moreover, it is pointed out that the similar methods may not be sufficient in the case \(X\) is a quintic surface.
