Download or read book Bramble Bees and Others written by J Henri Fabre and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The peasant, as he trims his hedge, whose riotous tangle threatens to encroach upon the road, cuts the trailing stems of the bramble a foot or two from the ground and leaves the root-stock, which soon dries up. These bramble-stumps, sheltered and protected by the thorny brushwood, are in great demand among a host of Hymenoptera who have families to settle. The stump, when dry, offers to any one that knows how to use it a hygienic dwelling, where there is no fear of damp from the sap; its soft and abundant pith lends itself to easy work; and the top offers a weak spot which makes it possible for the insect to reach the vein of least resistance at once, without cutting away through the hard ligneous wall. To many, therefore, of the Bee and Wasp tribe, whether honey-gatherers or hunters, one of these dry stalks is a valuable discovery when its diameter matches the size of its would-be inhabitants; and it is also an interesting subject of study to the entomologist who, in the winter, pruning-shears in hand, can gather in the hedgerows a faggot rich in small industrial wonders. Visiting the bramble-bushes has long been one of my favourite pastimes during the enforced leisure of the wintertime; and it is seldom but some new discovery, some unexpected fact, makes up to me for my torn fingers.

Download or read book Bramble Bees and Others written by Jean-Henri Fabre and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life and Love of the Insect CHAPTER 1. BRAMBLE-DWELLERS CHAPTER 2. THE OSMIAE. CHAPTER 3. THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE SEXES CHAPTER 4. THE MOTHER DECIDES THE SEX OF THE EGG CHAPTER 5. PERMUTATIONS OF SEX CHAPTER 6. INSTINCT AND DISCERNMENT CHAPTER 7. ECONOMY OF ENERGY CHAPTER 8. THE LEAF-CUTTERS CHAPTER 9. THE COTTON-BEES CHAPTER 10. THE RESIN-BEES CHAPTER 11. THE POISON OF THE BEE. CHAPTER 12. THE HALICTI: A PARASITE. CHAPTER 13. THE HALICTI: THE PORTRESS CHAPTER 14. THE HALICTI: PARTHENOGENESIS. In this volume I have collected all the essays on Wild Bees scattered through the "Souvenirs entomologiques," with the exception of those on the Chalicodomae, or Mason-bees proper, which form the contents of a separate volume entitled "The Mason-bees." The first two essays on the Halicti (12 and 13) have already appeared in an abbreviated form in "The Life and Love of the Insect," translated by myself and published by Messrs. A. & C. Black (in America by the Macmillan Co.) in 1911. With the greatest courtesy and kindness, Messrs. Black have given me their permission to include these two chapters in the present volume; they did so without fee or consideration of any kind, merely on my representation that it would be a great pity if this uniform edition of Fabre's Works should be rendered incomplete because certain essays formed part of volumes of extracts previously published in this country. Their generosity is almost unparalleled in my experience; and I wish to thank them publicly for it in the name of the author, of the French publishers and of the English and American publishers, as well as in my own. Of the remaining chapters, one or two have appeared in the "English Review" or other magazines; but most of them now see the light in English for the first time. I have once more, as in the case of "The Mason-bees," to thank Miss Frances Rodwell for the help which she has given me in the work of translation and research; and I am also grateful for much kind assistance received from the staff of the Natural History Museum and from Mr. Geoffrey Meade-Waldo in particular.
