On the bottom of one nest, is a Blue Burglar ( C/ia/ybion cyaneitm), Plate lY, fig. 15. Green Cuckoo Wasps (^Trichrysisparvula) lay eggs in the Daubers' cells. Small tenant wasps {Trypoxylon clavatum), lower left, and Ancistrsccnis uncinatus, right center, partition original Dauber cases, while Pseudagenia adjuncta (upper right) build new cells inside the old. Other squatters like the little Osmia cordata (lower right) also convert Daubers' cells into apartment houses. VIII.
