I have met with this species only in Natal, where it appears to feed exclusively on woodlice; the entrance to the nest can be plainly distinguished by the accumulation of the remains of their prey, bleached a dead white, scattered around it. The nest is not indicated by any mound or other accumulation of earth; but in the neighborhood of Durban at least, it is very frequently found in, or immediately adjacent to, the nests of

. I am inclined to think that this Leptogenys dispossesses the latter species of a part of their large nest, rather than take the t ouble of excavating one for itself. It also has a very noticeable smell, resembling essence of pears.

In 1904 1 I recorded the fact that our North American species feeds very largely on slaters (Oniscus and Armadillidium) and that "the earth surrouding the entrances to the nests is invariably white with innumerable bleaching limbs and segments of the crustaceans." The use of the same food by two species of
