The Peasant, As He Trims His Hedge, Whose Riotous Tangle Threatens To Encroach Upon The Road, Cuts The Trailing stems Of The Bramble A Foot Or Two From The Ground And Leaves The Root-Stock, Which Soon Dries Up. These Bramble-Stumps, Sheltered and Protected by The Thorny Brushwood, Are In great Demand Among A Host Of Hymenoptera Who Have Families To Settle. The Stump, When Dry, Offers To Any One That Knows How To Use It A Hygienic Dwelling, Where There Is No Fear Of Damp From The Sap; Its Soft And Abundant Pith Lends Itself To Easy Work; And The Top Offers A Weak Spot Which Makes It Possible For The Insect To Reach The Vein Of Least Resistance At Once, Without Cutting away Through The Hard Ligneous Wall. To Many, Therefore, Of The Bee And Wasp Tribe, Whether Honey-Gatherers Or Hunters, One Of These Dry Stalks Is A Valuable Discovery When Its Diameter Matches The Size Of Its Would-Be Inhabitants; And It Is Also An Interesting subject Of Study To The Entomologist Who, In the Winter, Pruning-Shears In hand, Can Gather In the Hedgerows A Faggot Rich In small Industrial Wonders.

Alexander Ivanovitch Petrunkevitch (Russian: Александр Иванович Петранкевич, born December 22, 1875 in Pliski near Kiev, now Ukraine – died March 9, 1964 New Haven) was an eminent Russianarachnologist of his time. From 1910 to 1939 he described over 130 spider species. One of his most famous essays was "The Spider and the Wasp." In it he uses effective word choices and some comic touch. Biography[edit] His aristocratic father, Ivan Illitch Petrunkevitch, was a liberal member of the First Duma and founded the Constitutional Democratic Party. After finishing his studies in Moscow and in Freiburg under August Weismann, Alexander settled in Yale in 1910, becoming a full professor in 1917. Apart from describing present-day species, he was a major figure in the study of fossil arachnids, including those in amber and from the Coal Measures. He also experimented with live specimens and worked on insects. He was elected to the National Academy of Science in 1954. Throughout his career he remained politically active, trying to increase awareness of problems in Russia. He was also a skilled machinist and wrote two volumes of poetry (under the pseudonym Alexandr Jan-Ruban), and translated Pushkin into the English language, andByron into Russian. He died in 1964.[1] [more]
