Text Appearing Before Image:
succeeded by five species of Myrmica, of which
three are said to be generally distributed. Almost
all the rest are local. One of the best abused is
the House Ant (Diplorhoptrum molesta), which
makes itself too much at home in many London
houses. Of this little creature a graphic account
is contained in our first volume (1S65, p. 170), and
in the second volume (1S66, p. 272), Mr. W. E.
Shuckard continues the theme. Recently, others
have written, not long articles, but imploring para-
graphs, begging to be relieved, by any means, from
the incursions of the "House Ant" .
This reminds us, not only of the "Agricultural
Ant", of which Dr. Lincecum has given such an
interesting account, but also of the "Sauba Ant",
which our friend H. W. Bates has almost immor-
talized in his "Naturalist on the Amazons"; and
hence we pass into a dream of ant histories and
ant stories, and whatever scores of naturalists and
travellers have written about ants, between the
days of Solomon and our own.
