[By Thco. Carreras. 



In the foreground a female is boring holes and la\ing eggs. Near bv two full-grown grubs (" leather-jackets ") are seen, one in the earth 

 feeding upon grass roots. Several chrysalids have half emerged froi'n the ground, and from one the daddy is escaping. A male — known 

 by the different shape of his hind-body — is flying in the distance. Twice the natural size.
