The Habits Of The Aculeate Hymenoptera. Iii, William H. Ashmead Jan 1894

The Habits Of The Aculeate Hymenoptera. Iii, William H. Ashmead

An

Family V. MELLINIDAE. This family (if we can call it a family) is represented in our fauna by one genus with three species, and as these are exceedingly rare, no observations on any of them have been made. Westwood, however, has observed the European Mellinus arvensis burrowing in sand-banks, and Shuckard states the species preys upon Diptera. Kirby and Spence also say it selects the smaller flies, including the troublesome Stomoxys calcitrans.

An

The subject of my address is one that has been rarely touched by American entomologists, although offering one of the most attractive and richest fields for research and discovery, as connected with it are many problems of biologic and philosophical importance, which if solved, would throw much light upon many of the moted questions of the day -evolution of species, development of sexes, specialization of organs, transmission of acquired characters, adaptability to environment, etc.

While inspecting during the past summer, the fruit orchard of a friend residing in this neighborhood, my attention was attracted by the peculiar appearance of the leaves of a young plum tree. At the first glance, I thought it might be affected by Aphides, but, on closer examination, I found unmistakable evidence of the work of a leaf-cutting bee, in the circular holes in many of the leaves, and on opening one of the coils of leaves, of which there were four or five, I discovered the curious chambers of the bee, each containing a half grown grub comfortably ensconced, …

The species in the genus Pompilus Fabr., judging from the records, seem to have a diversity of habits. According to Westwood, Pompilus niger Fahr. in England provisions its cells with small Lepidopterous larvae; Pompilus fumipennis Zett. with ants, while Pompilus petiolatus preys upon spiders. Now no doubt this diversity of habits will be found correlated by structural differences, which should be used in separating this extensive genus into subgenera. In our fauna, most of our species in this genus, or at least those whose habits are known, feed upon spiders.

A Preliminary Introduction To The Study Of Entomology, Lawrence Bruner Jan 1894

A Preliminary Introduction To The Study Of Entomology, Lawrence Bruner

Department of Entomology: Faculty Publications

This book has been prepared for the purpose of partially supplying a demand that seems to exist here in the West for an elementary work on entomology such as can be used in the public schools and on the farm. It is not an original production, but comprises notes from many sources as they have been gathered by the writer and presented from time to time in talks to his classes in the University of Nebraska and before audiences at farmers' institutes throughout the state. The chapters on remedies and on apple and small grain insects have been compiled and …

Bulletin No. 26 - Sub-Irrigation Vs. Surface Irrigation And Water For Irrigation, J. W. Sanborn, Samuel Fortier Dec 1893

Bulletin No. 26 - Sub-Irrigation Vs. Surface Irrigation And Water For Irrigation, J. W. Sanborn, Samuel Fortier

UAES Bulletins

It has long been held that irrigation water applied beneath the surface is better than surface irrigation, in relation to the amount used, the temperature of the soil, the amount of evaporation, washing of soil and yield of crop, including quality of crop received. Though philosophically there would seem to be little doubt that the propositions are well taken, sub-irrigation as an economical process has been over-pres ed by some as a mean of very greatly curtailing the amount of water used . There are those who have asserted that only one-tenth of the water applied by sub-irrigation would be …

Bulletin No. 25 - Fuits And Forest, Shade Adn Ornamental Trees, E. S. Richman

UAES Bulletins

After three years' trial on the experimental grounds we are ready to acknowledge the conditions unfavorable to the growth of strawberries; the high and dry location of the land, coupled with its sterility, make it unsuitable to the growth of strawberries. The first plants were necessarily, on account of lack of time, planted before the soil was fertilized. Manure was applied freely the second and third seasons, as a top dressing, but the ground, being compacted by frequent irrigation, never has been in the proper condition for strawberries, either as regards fertility or mechanical condition. A new bed has been …
