  Pelopoeus

  This 
  is 
  an 
  external 
  builder, 
  erecting 
  its 
  nests 
  on 
  rough 
  

   walls, 
  or 
  corners, 
  on 
  grass, 
  or 
  on 
  leaves. 
  When 
  on 
  a 
  grass 
  

   stem 
  the 
  mud 
  is 
  continued 
  far 
  up, 
  thus 
  breaking 
  the 
  out- 
  

   line 
  of 
  the 
  cell, 
  which 
  is 
  in 
  consequence 
  not 
  so 
  readily 
  

   observed. 
  A 
  solitary 
  cell 
  may 
  be 
  built, 
  or 
  over 
  a 
  dozen 
  

   may 
  be 
  placed 
  side 
  by 
  side, 
  the 
  whole 
  being 
  then 
  covered 
  

   well 
  over 
  with 
  mud.
