To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This species is rarely met with except on the heathery commons of Surrey, Hants, Dorset, etc. The THE SOLITARY WASPS 27 solitary wasps are subject to the attacks of cuckoos belonging to the jewel fly or Chrysis tribe ; these behave differently from those belonging to the aculeate groups, as their larvae do not eat the food laid up for the wasp, but wait till the wasp larva has finished feeding up, and then devour it. Unlike as these cuckoos are to their hosts in their brilliant metallic colorat...ion, etc. , they have structural characters curiously like theirs, so that even here a common parentage in bygone generations may be reasonably sus- pected. At present, however, they are placed, except by a few systematists, in quite distinct families of the Hymenoptera. In general form these solitary wasps resemble the fossors more than the bees ; they have mostly short tongues (I think all our British ones have), and their hairs are simple or more or less spirally twisted. THE SOCIAL GROUPS THE social bees are certainly the most highly specialized of the Anthophtta, and the social wasps of the Diploptera or insects with folded wings.
