Large numbers of larvre of this ant-lion were found at Merry- meeting park near Brunswicky Me., Aug. 24, 1911, in their pits in loose sand along the sides of foot paths. Several of these larv~ were kept alive, each in a separate bottle with enough sand to make a small pit and fed with spiders at irregular intervals sometimes of several weeks. They remained all winter in an ordinary living room without any special care. The first of November they ceased to make pits and no food was offered them until they began again in March when they took all spiders and insects of suitable size that were given them. On May 1 one of them made its cocoon on the top of the sand and came out adult June 2. The others followed and the last one made its cocoon June !i?å coming out July 1. The insects are now in the collection of the Boston Society of Natural History.
