THE NEST-BUILDING 



MILLIPEDE. 



I heae four photographs represent successive stages by which the female Millipede fashions the nest that is to protect her 

 numerous egga, and at the same time adds to the layers of eggs inside the walls. In the last of the four pictures the Millipede 

 has been removed to show the half-built nest more clearly. These and the following photographs are all twice the natural size.
