Sociobiology, 2018 In the Epiponini, queen number declines through colony cycle, because some queens are expelled from colonies. Here we demonstrate that Epiponini wasps may accept expelled queens in situations of queenlessness.

Social Wasps in Exotic Forest Planting and Atlantic Rainforest in the Neotropical Region
Sociobiology, 2020 Social wasps play an important role in communities, whether in natural or agricultural ecosystems, performing pollination and/or predation on other organisms, especially caterpillars, which reveals their potential for biological control.
