wheeler: the ants of borneo. 71 



Tandjong, S. E. Borneo (Fritz Suck); Kapouas Basin (Chaper); 

 Sarawak (Doria and Beccari). 



A male, female, and worker from Kucliing (John Hewitt) and a male 

 and a dozen workers from the same locality (H. W. Smith). Hewitt's 

 specimens are accompanied by two of the peculiar nests of this ant, 

 which consist of coarse, fibrous carton, built in the form of a series 

 of contiguous and rather irregular chambers on the under surfaces of 

 large leaves. One of the nests is 9 cm. long, 5 cm. broad and 2-3 cm. 

 high, the other 8 cm. long, 4 cm. broad and 2 cm. high. These nests 

 have been observed by Jacobson and von Buttel Reepen in Java and 

 are briefly described by Forel (Notes of the Leyden mus., 1909, 31, 

 p. 252 and Zool. jahrb. Syst, 1913, 36, p. 73).
