In the worker there are five pairs of abdominal ganglia, but in the queen and drone only four. The sense organs are the simple and compound eyes, and the antennae, which are furnished with numerous sensitive structures. Alimentary system.—The oesophagus is a narrow tube which runs down the thoracic region. In the abdominal region it expands into the crop or honey-sac. The crop

The separate facets or simple eyes, of each compoinid eye, are hexagonal, or six-sided, and in the microscope look not umlike a section of honey-comb. The number of these is prodigious—Leeuwenhoek actually counted 12,000 in the eye of a dragon- fly—while some butterflies have over 17,000. The compound eyes are mo- tionless, but from their size and sub- spherical shape, they give quite a range of vision. It is not likely that.
