Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.We compared the community structure of Aculeata bees and wasps in natural deciduous broadleaved forests and two coniferous plantations (Cryptomeria japonica, “Sugi” and Chamaecyparis obtusa, “Hinoki”) in southern Kyushu, Japan. Compared with natural forests, the dependence of Aculeata communities on the detritus‐based food chain increased in both ...

Associative odour learning affects mating behaviour in Aphidius ervi males (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)
European Journal of Entomology, 2005 We used the aphid parasitoid Aphidius ervi reared in its host Acyrthosiphon pisum to examine if male sexual attractive responses can be conditioned to an odour (vanilla) that is not present in the natural environment.

Warming Reduces Parasitoid Success and Narrows Their Diet Breadth
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.Warming may have a major impact on trophic networks, but few interactions are typically studied. Here we show that experimental warming strongly decreased the success of parasitoid development across 28 Drosophila‐parasitoid interactions from a tropical rainforest network. Warming strongly narrowed the diversity of hosts that the parasitoids could use.

European Journal of Entomology, 2010 The host recognition and acceptance behaviour of two braconid larval parasitoids (Cotesia sesamiae and C. flavipes) were studied using natural stemborer hosts (i.e., the noctuid Busseola fusca for C.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 198-210, January 2026.Using extensive Malaise trapping, we collected a high richness of Pimplinae (86 species, 5892 individuals) in habitat types across a successional gradient. We found higher richness in forest than in nearby farmland, highlighting the importance of tropical forest in conserving parasitoid wasp richness.

European Journal of Entomology, 2009 After leaving their hosts, the larvae of endoparasitic braconid wasps pupate in cocoons. To determine their investment in cocoon silk, the dry weight of newly emerged wasps and that of the empty cocoons were measured for three gregarious braconid species
