record 
Burrill and 
Smith, 1919 
2 Batrisodes globosus (Lee.) is probably the only species of this genus 
so far reported from these nests of Formica ulkei. In 1929 I reported 
that B. denticollis Casey was also present, but subsequent study and 
collection has proven that the latter were all females of the former 
species. Holmquist (1928) in addition reported the presence of a 
third species, B. spretus Lee. and, although I have not examined 
this latter material it is possible that this record also refers to females 
of globosus. Extensive and intensive collecting in these mounds since 
1929 has never yielded either B. denticollis or B. spretus, although 
B. globosus is almost always to be had in numbers.
