GOOD 10 EVIL
OF 'COW KILLERS'
WASHINGTON, Oct. ; j. 7i
The vast thouch Utile known army
of nnitillid wasps, known in this
country aa "velvet ants" and 'Vow
killers." prohahly is of nniHi
greater Importance to man than
Jms heen supposed, in the opinion
pf Dr. Clarence K. Mickei of the
ImnersUy of .Minnesota, after
completing an exhaustive stmly
of their biolony and taxonomy.
The potentialities for ;ood and
nvil in I lu.c ri-..-i t uroo ixhi..U .
capable of stinging hard bodies.
He largely in the fact that they
are deadly parasites on other in
ects. chiefly bees and various
species of wasps, during the early
Btag.'s of their growth.
Ur. Michel cites investigations
which have shown that they para
sitize nt least species of insects
it ml that the dangerous tsetse fly
o Africa is one of their victims.
jlr fact, U has been suggested that
the- decrease in thn number of
' (seise flies in certain ureas may
have been caused, in part at least
by their activity.
They nlso are known to nttncl;
solitary bees and bumblebees and.
Dr. Mickei remarks,' might rea
sonably be expected to be para
sites of the honeybee." Several
attacks on honeybees, in fact,
have been reported, but they .up
pear to be rare. Nevertheless,
the evidence is sufficient to in
dicate that the "are to he regarded
as injurious or beneficial insects
to man according to the points of
view."
Further study, r. Mickei. be
lieves, Ih likely to show that more
Insects are parasitized by the mil
tilllds than have thus far been
listed, since estimates place the
number of species In various parts
of the world between 3, lift ft and
I. "fto.
I "It cannot be doubted." he says,
t "that a group of insects so nu
iiueroAs in species ns the mntillids
must be of more or less economic
J importance. The relationship:
J which these waspss have with
their numerous but unknown hosM
'. must J'yiully reflect themselves
in the relation of insects to man.
although it may be somewhat In
direct."
The creatures look like brightly
colored anis. with u dense cover
ing of hair which gives them a
velvety appearance. They are
more closely related, however, to
digger wasps than to ants. Only
tho males are equipped with wings.
Willie the females have the sling
ing power and have- heen known
to cau.-e intense suffering to in
dividuals stung.
When the time comes to lay her
eggs the female cms a small hole
in the cocoon of the host insect.
She then deposits an egg Inside,
and when it hatches the young
mutillid begins feeding on the oth
; it more fully developed young
; creature, devouring it entirely and
, becoming full grown in a few
'days, it then spins its own cocoon
: within that of the host it has des
troyed. Us size upon emergence
'apparently is controlled by the
size of its host, accounting for the
wide variations found among mem
bers of the same families. They
thrive particularly In open and
sandy regions, multiplying nt a
rate of one generation a year in
the colder altitudes, but two or
perhaps more t lines as often in
tropical and subtropical places.
