This animal, which is about threequarters of a meter long, canbe identified by the leathery plates of armor that cover it nearly from the tip of its nose to the end of its tail.

Polyembryony in Hierochloe Odorata (l.) Beauv

The evolution of polyembryony in parasitoid wasps.

Polyembryony has evolved independently in four families of parasitoid wasps. We review three main hypotheses for the selective forces favouring this developmental mode in parasitoids: polyembryony (i) reduces the costs of egg limitation; (ii) reduces the genetic conflict among offspring; and (iii) allows offspring to adjust their numbers to the quality of the host. Using comparative data and ve...

and is of very common occurrence in all these provinces. The plant is avoided by all grazing animals, and it is curious, considering how wide its distribution, how seldom poisoning from it is seen. A Burmese girl, aged about 3 years, was found playing with about 2 dozens of the half-ripe legumes of the plant, and two hours later, about 2 P.M., she was asked by her mother what she had done with ...
