A Phylogenetic Analysis of the Social Wasp GenusBrachygastraPerty, 1833, and Description of a New Species (Hymenoptera: Vespidae: Epiponini) [PDF]

American Museum Novitates, 2012
ABSTRACT Phylogenetic relationships among the species of the genus Brachygastra Perty, 1883, are analyzed based on characters of female morphology, male genitalia, and nest architecture. Analysis of the data matrix with equal weights results in one tree, which is also obtained under implied weighting.

Caste asymmetries in the neotropical Swarm-founding wasp polybia (Trychothorax) ignobilis (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Epiponini)

, 2022
Epiponini wasps are dominant in Neotropical regions and represent, in several ways, exceptions for general theories regarding social insects. They are highly eusocial and most species build large and complex nests. These wasps form large populations, and colony reproductive fission occurs by swarming.
