RMRDGEN2–. An introduction to zoology, with directions for practical work (invertebrates). INSECT A : HYMENOPTERA 397 and Solitary. No less than sixteen species of these wasps are British, though they seem but little known except to specialists. The British species are all alike in having a narrow black body with yellow bands on it and all have bifid claws on the tarsi. The genus Eumenes includes several solitary wasps, of which the only British species is Eumenes coardata. This wasp forms little clay vase-shaped nests attached to twigs of heath or some other shrubby plant (Fig. 305, c). The insect its

They are probably most of them arboreal in their habits. Nearly all of the known forms are exotic. According to the observations of Bates the species of the genus Cryptocerus in the Amazons Yalley may frequently be observed in dry open places on low trees and bushes, or running on branches of newly felled trees; they a

RMRDAYXX–. The popular natural history . Zoology. 412 THE FRIGATE BIRD. Another well-known British species of this genus is the Crested Cor- morant, Green Cormorant, or Shag, a bird which can at once be distinguished from the preceding species by the green colour of the plumage and the difference in size, the length of an adult male being only twenty- seven inches. In habits this species resembles the common Cormorant. We now arrive at the well-known PEtiCAN, which is universally accepted as the type of the family. This bird is found spread over many portions of Africa and Asia, and is also found in so

RMPFYPEW–. Fresh-water biology. Freshwater biology. Chiefly a marine group; the only genus known from the fresh water of North America, enters with its hosts, being found parasitic upon the gills and in the gill cav- ities of Decapods of the genera Palaemo- netes and Palaemon. Three species are known, and are found along the Atlantic coast from New Hamsphire to Florida, and in the Mississippi River in Louisiana. Fig. 1306. Probopyrus pandalicola Packard. A, Male; X 30.

RMRDKFWD–. The Cambridge natural history. Zoology. 136 COLEOPTERA There is but one genus, and for a long time only two or three species were known, and were great rarities in collections; in the last few years the number has been raised to nearly forty.-' They are remarkable beetles with oblong form, and a somewhat metallic upper surface, wliich is much sculptured, and possesses four yellow, smooth spots on the elytra. According to Mr. George Lewis they are found feeding at the running sap of trees, but the larvae are not known. Helotidae are peculiar to the Indo-Malayan region (including Japan) with o
RMPG2WRE–. Report of the Canadian Arctic Expedition 1913-18. Scientific expeditions. 26 A Canadian Arctic Expedition, 1913—1918 areas form two groups—a polar group of 12-14 areas and a band next to the sinus of 18-22 areas, 7-11 seen on one side. Each elevated area, from smus to pole, bears 4-5 pairs of scrobiculations and often an unpaired terminal one. This is a peculiar type of desmid without any close relation to other species. In possessing canal-like depression with scrobiculate elevated areas it is distinct from other species of this genus. Only a few plants were seen in the material collected f
RMRDE7PX–. Our ferns in their haunts; a guide to all the native species. Ferns. THE POLYPODIES.. HE polypodies belong to the largest of the fern families. There are nearly four hundred species in the world, mostly in the Tropics. Only five species extend into northeastern America, and three o f these are considered by many botanists to belong to a closely allied genus which they name Phegop- teris. This name, it may be said, was once the name of a section of the genus Phegopteris DryopUris.
