Global Geographical Patterns on the Historical Species Description Process of Fig Wasps (Agaonidae). [PDF]
Zool StudFig pollinating wasps (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Agaonidae) constitute a key ecological role since they are the only known pollinators to Ficus (Moraceae), founding complex food webs. Taxonomy of Agaonidae is relatively well known due to their ecological importance and their mutualistic closed relationship with Ficus. However, the spatial and temporal

Differentiation during fig ontogeny suggests opposing selection by mutualists
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Dioecy allows separation of female and male functions and therefore facilitates separate co‐evolutionary pathways with pollinators and seed dispersers. In monoecious figs, pollinators' offspring develop inside the syconium by consuming some of the seeds.

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2006 In fig wasps, mating takes place among the offspring of one or a few foundress mothers inside the fig from which mated females disperse to found new broods. Under these conditions, related males will compete with each other for mating and several studies

The Phylosymbiosis Pattern Between the Fig Wasps of the Same Genus and Their Associated Microbiota
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Microbial communities can be critical for many metazoans, which can lead to the observation of phylosymbiosis with phylogenetically related species sharing similar microbial communities.
