Extract

In an earlier paper (Woodroffe, 1953) full details were given of the results of a survey, the purpose of which was to study the insects and mites which inhabit certain birds' nests in Britain. Since then further work has been carried out on certain species, and, as a result, one or two statements made in the earlier publication now require correction or modification.
