Extract

Last year I reported P. vespoides (Cr.) a pollen- provisioning wasp and gave some additional facts in regard to its nesting habits and biology. Since that time I have further verified these facts, both in California and in Colorado, and have in addition taken many nests of a smaller species, P. edwardsii Cr.*, at and near Pasadena and Sierra Madre, California. This species according to Bradley ('22) is found in Utah, Nevada, California and Washington.
