The TarantuIa killing wasps.

The tarantnla killer Is DustilnB'
mouiet creature. When running on the
ground its wings yibrate continuously.
When 1t sights its prey 1t files In cir
cles around it. The tarantula trem-
bles violently; now runs and hides;
now, rising rampant, shows signs or
fight. The watchful huntress finds d
favorable moment, darts upon its VIC
tim with curved body and thrusts In
its sting if possible into the soft ab-
domen. Often the spider is at once
paralyzed. but second and even
third wound Is sometimes necessary.
The victor seizes its mOtionless prey
with its Jaws and drags 1t to hole
previously dug. She thruks IL In, de-
posits an egg upon It and covers IT up.
In this case the bulk Of the tarantula
insures sufficient food for the on
spring. and one alone is provided, as
seems to be the case with the clcada
storing wasps. But the mud dauber
and her ilk. which select smaller prey,
garner many, rarely sealing cell ere
