Handcoloured copperplate drawn and engraved by John Curtis for his own 'British Entomology, being Illustrations and Descriptions of the Genera of Insects found in Great Britain and Ireland,' London, 1834. Curtis (1791 –1862) was an entomologist, illustrator, engraver and publisher. 'British Entomology' was published from 1824 to 1839, and comprised 770 illustrations of insects and the plants upon which they are found.

This being the effect on the colonies that harbor the Lomechusa,one naturally inquires, why the habit of rearing these parasites has notlong since led to the extinction of sanguined? This question has beenat least partially answered by Wasmann. He finds that the ants treatthe beetle larvae like th

In his attempt to substitute amical for natural selection Wasmannalso overlooks the fact that ants live in opulence, to use Janets expres-sion, compared with solitary animals, and are therefore able to supporta host of parasites on what may be called their large margin of vitality,without serious danger to the existe

While both beetles are highly pubescent, like these workers, they differ greatly in form; Apteronina being decidedly ant-like, whereas Dinardilla has the form of beetles which ants have considerable difficulty in seizing or holding in their mandibles.
