Pond frog as a predator of hornet workers: High tolerance to venomous stings

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Some animals use stingers to repel attackers, and some predators have evolved tolerance to such stings, enabling them to consume venomous prey. For example, social wasps, such as hornets, use modified ovipositors as venomous stingers to inject venom, which can cause intense pain in humans.

Unveiling Wasps as Potential Pollinators: Floral Traits and Wasp Sociality Intensify Network Centrality in a Highly Diverse Tropical Ecosystem

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1520-1531, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Wasps, members of over 90 hymenopteran families, exhibit diverse behaviours, including pollination, predation and parasitism. While wasps are known pollinators in specialised systems, such as the intricate mutualism of fig trees and the deceptive pollination of certain orchids, they have historically been considered ineffective pollinators ...

Integrative Taxonomy Clarifies Species Limits in Two Closely Related Solitary Wasps: Pachymenes ater and Pachymenes ghilianii (Hymenoptera: Vespidae: Eumeninae)

Insects
Species delimitation in morphologically conserved groups poses a significant challenge for traditional taxonomy. In the Neotropical wasp genus Pachymenes (Hymenoptera: Vespidae: Eumeninae), two putative sister species—Pachymenes ater and P.

Incidental pollination by passing animals: An overlooked mechanism?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1245-1250, September 2025.
The conservation of pollinators is essential for sustaining the ecosystem services of pollen transfer, which support crop production, biodiversity conservation and ecosystem health. While primary pollinators have been the focus of most conservation efforts, subordinate or incidental pollinators have been largely overlooked.

The Mesosoma of Protanilla (Leptanillinae) and the Groundplan of the Formicidae (Hymenoptera)

Journal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 7, July 2025.
Phenomic investigation of the mesosoma of Protanilla lini reveals groundplan features of the ants and raises new homology questions for future investigation, both within Formicidae and across Aculeata. Special highlights include refined definition of the pronotum, complex discoveries of the promesothoracic articulation, and a new perspective on and ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Orancistrocerus aterrimus aterrimus and comparative analysis in the family Vespidae (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Eumeninae)

ZooKeys, 2018
To date, only one mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) in the Eumeninae has been reported in the world and this is the first report in China. The mitogenome of O. a. aterrimus is 17 972 bp long, and contains 38 genes, including 13 protein coding genes (PCGs)
