Up to the present time (September 4tli) I have found no 

 more eggs in the vivarium. The total number of eggs found 

 is fourteen. This seems a small number for three females to 

 lay, but probably the number laid varies considerably, as 

 one specimen which I dissected some time ago contained 

 only six eggs in the oviducts.
