footstalk

These they strung upon a thread, taking care to pass the thread through that end nearest the footstalk.

Another species of this family (Polistes gallica, Fig. 348) fixes its little nest by a footstalk to the stem of some plant.

The eyes, the facettes of which are few in number, are placed on a footstalk, whence the name of the genus Stylops.

The abdomen is small, sharply pointed, and placed on a long footstalk.

The head is large, and squared, and the abdomen is attached to the thorax by a large footstalk.
