Thanks for sharing, but that's a different work entirely. The one I was looking for is from 1958, which is what makes the embargo till 2050 even more comical. Whatever info it contains is already pretty well aged. 

The reason why I was looking for it is because Brian Johnson and Timothy Linksvayer cite it as the source of the mistaken notion that extant species can somehow be used to understand the evolution of social behavior in insects. 

Such as, we could draw a linear path from say solitary Hymenoptera through aggregating species on to honeybees and ants. Whereas, these all evolved in the far distant past in ways we cannot directly know. They are not links in some chain but the current end points of very many similar but separate pathways.
