112 Psyche [June 



Perhaps the most striking difference in the habits of the two 

 species is indicated by the fact that the eggs and larvae obtained 

 by Grossbeck were dug from open burrows and nothing was seen 

 like a covered burrow. Emphor fuscojubatus very plainly makes 

 use of the turret earth and even the ejected pellets for covering the 

 nest not long after oviposition, leaving, however, a nearly circular 

 depression somewhat like the impression of a finger tip in the sand. 



That no bees were seen at Arlington after Sep. 3 may very well 

 have been due to unfavorable weather conditions. At Cape May 

 Point some were still active during the first week of September, 

 but how much longer I do not know. 



The death rate of the larvae must be high, for from twenty-one 

 cocoons preserved by Grossbeck he reports as emerging only one 

 male and six females. This took place between July 11 and July 

 20, although on July 21 no bees were seen in the vicinity of the 

 nesting site. Probably the time of emerging from the cocoon is 

 nearly the same for E. fuscojubatus, although I have as yet made 

 no observations on this point. 



ANTS COLLECTED IN GEORGIA BY DR. J. C. BRADLEY 

 AND MR. W. T. DAVIS. 



By William Morton Wheeler. 



The following list is compiled from a large collection of ants 

 made in different parts of Georgia by Dr. J. C. Bradley and a 

 smaller collection made by Mr. W. T. Davis in a more restricted 

 area. I have indicated the names of these collectors by their 

 initials for each locality.
