Book Description
Excerpt from Instincts and Habits of the Solitary Wasps The work that has served as a basis for this volume has extended over several years, and has been done in Wisconsin, at the residence of Dr. Charles A. Leuthstrom, to whose forbearance in allowing us to use his gardens as a hunting-ground, we are greatly indebted. The field is a most favorable one since an island in the lake close by, acres of woodland all about, and a farm with two vegetable gardens, one on the top of a hill and one on lower ground, offer a rich variety of nesting places. It is in the lower garden, which is bounded by woods, that the wasps are found in greatest abundance. The study of the solitary wasps was suggested to us by those most interesting and delightful of all entomological papers, the "Souvenirs Entomologiques" of J. H. Fabre, and however widely our conclusions may differ, we have for M. Fabre and for his work, the deepest respect and admiration. We wish to express our indebtedness to Mr. W. H. Ashmead of Washington, for his cordial interest in the work and for his kindness in identifying for us the various species.
