SINGULAR FEEDING HABITS OF WooD-

SINGULAR FEEDING HABITS OF WooD-
ANTs.-Mr. McCook, of the Academy
of Natural Science of Philadelphia,
has published in the Proceedings
of that body some notwithstanding
observations on the habits of F6rmisa
rvta, from which it appears that
these ants have in their separate
communities regular provision made
whereby the workers are fed with
out having to quit the scene of their
labors. The foragers of commu-
nifty, as they come down the tree
paths, their abdomens swollen with
honey-dew-in which position they
are called repletes-are arrested near
the foot by workers from the hill
seeking food. The replete rears upon
her hind-legs, and places her mouth
to the mouth of the hungry worker,
or pensioner," as the author calls
him, who assumes the same posture.
Often two, sometimes three pension
ers are thus fed at once by one
replete. The latter commonly yields
the honey dew complacently, but
sometimes she is seized and arrested
by the pensioner, occasionally with
great vigor. The author described
a number of experiments leading to
the conclusion that there was a COM
plete amity between the ants of q
district embracing some 1000 hills
and countless millions of creatures.
Insects from hills widely separated,
always fraternized completely when
transferred. It was found, however,
that ants immersed in water, when
replaced upon the hills, are invaria-
bly, attacked as en- mics; the assail-
ants being immersed were them
selves in turn assaulted. Expert
ments indicate that the bath tenn
porarily destroys the peculiar odor
or other property by which the in
sects recognize their fellows.
