Evaluating Bayesian Morphological Clocks for Estimating a Dated Phylogeny in a Relict and Fossil‐Rich Family of Wasps (Hymenoptera, Chrysidoidea)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 448-463, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, a wide array of tools originally developed for molecular dating analyses has been adapted for use within a morphological clock perspective. This is of paramount relevance for taxonomic groups that cannot be sampled in forms suitable for DNA extraction.

EVOLUTION AND MANIPULATION OF PARASITOID EGG LOAD

Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 2009
In proovigenic parasitoids such as Leptopilina boulardi, the female emerges with a limited egg load and no further eggs are produced during its adult life. A female thus runs the risk of exhausting this limited supply of eggs before the end of her life.

Morphological defense of the egg mass of Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) affects parasitic capacity and alters behaviors of egg parasitoid wasps

, 2021
The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is a dangerous pest of cereals originating from the tropical and subtropical parts of the Americas. It has invaded over a hundred countries and is spreading rapidly throughout East Asia.

Egg Load Evolution in Parasitoids

The American Naturalist, 2000
Parasitic wasps lay their eggs in or on other insects. Allocation of resources to reproduction (eggs) and survival (life span) should maximize reproductive success, but stochasticity in the number of hosts encountered precludes an exact match of allocation with reproductive opportunity.

Effect of temperature on the walking behaviour of an egg parasitoid: disentangling kinetic response from integrated response

, 2020
1. This study investigated the effect of temperatures ranging from 10.8 to 34.2 °C on seven walking parameters of an egg parasitoid, Anaphes listronoti.
