Abstract
AMONG those who have most carefully and successfully studied the habits and psychology of ants, Father Wassmann occupies a place in the front rank. He has especially devoted his attention to the curious and complicated relations which exist between ants and their domestic animals. Of these, he gives a list comprising no less than 1246 species! Father Wassmann is an accurate and careful observer, and his writings are most interesting.
