Gen. Ocodoma.

We now come to a set of Ants extremely numerous over all India, and comprising several species very nearly alike and probaly confounded together by those who have not examined them thoroughly. Almost all the species that I have seen have two kinds of neuters, one of them of very large size compared with the ordinary Workers, and which are usually called Warriors. Some points in the history of the economy of these Ants have caused much. interest among Naturalists at borne with regard to the food of these little creatures. The chief distinction of Ocodoma   HNS from Atta   HNS consists in the former having some small spines on the thorax.
