Ant-lion 2

A Nest of an ant-lion is a hell for a small ant.
After I get a new post to Doshisha University, a student was interested in an ant lion that I talked about an accident of a coke warehouse to students. He was for his graduation thesis, he select ant lion. He turned around in Kyoto-shi, where many temples easiest. He say that "all ant lion in Kyoto have the Doshisha mark".

All ant lion in kyoto-city have Doshisha-mark: This is real fact

"Mt. Yoshida of the Kyoto University have a same Doshisha mark". I think that was a joke, but I confirmed it myself. It is a fact, and is a mystery. The ant lion which a student bring to me from Kyushu was hairy. Later, I know this is different class. The latest information(2004) is 17 class in Japan, ‚Q‚O‚O‚Oclass in the world.(http://www.mainichi.co.jp/hanbai/nie/academy03_07.html). They have different individuality, for example savage(Tango),restless(Hamamatsu), they are a localism.

I get a book from Mr. Kinta ro Baba, he is a researcher of ant-lion. I know from the book, in Japan, a lot of kinds was checked. There was the opportunity that went to a monkey forest dune of, Shimokita, Aomori -pref. by a program of "a beautiful woman book of travel" of, Asahi National Broadcasting for 1985 years. Since this place was a shooting examination room of the Defense Agency, off-limits for general public. We entered the hall by guidance of the Defense Agency. I find in the fence nearby dune zone of a boundary with pasturage ground, it was paradise of ant lion. I cached two of them and keeping it in a film case to carry to laboratory of a university. NHK came just in the nick of time. To escort it to the studio, I paid attention so that calmly by car, and hideout of ant-lion was not broken, but it surprised by illumination and fail in appearance.
