Abstract
IN reference to the letter of Mr. H. V. Davis (NATURE, October 12, p. 109), I may say that in this district ordinary wasps have been decidedly scarce this year. Reports from several other localities are of the same character. Queens, however, were abudant in the spring (May and June), but I think that only a few survived the wet and cloudy weather.
