A Bug That Can Cut Metal.

The zopherous Melicanus is the only known species of American beetle that has strength enough in it's mandibles to cut metal. This curious faculty of the zopherus was accidentally discovered by F. ". Devoe, a member of the New York Microscopical society. A friend had sent MT. pevoe some specimens of this queer species of bug from the northern states of South America. The microscopist was busily engaged when the insects arrived and simply provided temporary quarters for the creatures in a glass jar having metal top in which the porcelain cap was wanting. With in less than forty-eight hours they had cut holes in the metal sufficient to get their heads through and would soon have escaped had their operations re- mained undetected. By careful experi- ment MT. Devoe found that the force necessary to do such cutting was equal to 369 grammes.
