Co‐foundress confinement elicits kinship effects in a naturally sub‐social parasitoid

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 33, Issue 8, Page 1068-1085, August 2020., 2020
Sub‐social parasitoid brood sex ratios respond to foundress number if foundresses are non‐siblings but not if they are sibs. Abstract Kinship among interacting individuals is often associated with sociality and also with sex ratio effects. Parasitoids in the bethylid genus Goniozus are sub‐social, with single foundress females exhibiting post ...

Assessingalphaandbetataxonomy in eupelmid wasps: determinants of the probability of describing good species and synonyms

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, 2010
10 páginas, 4 figuras, 4 tablas. [EN]: We analysed the status of the taxonomical knowledge on Afrotropical and Palaearctic Eupelmidae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea), by assessing the historical accumulation of valid new species and synonyms through time, as well as the factors that have determined the process of description of good species and synonyms in

Ensuring the Safety of Classical Biological Control for Cabbage Seedpod Weevil in Canada: Assessment of the Ecological Host Range of Candidate Ectoparasitoids in Europe and Clarification of their Taxonomic Status [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Classical biological control of insect pests and weeds can lead to potential conflicts, particularly if the insect pest and weed agents are closely related. Such a conflict may occur in biological control of the

Interesting record of eupelmid wasps of the rare genus Calymmochilus Masi, 1919 (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Eupelmidae) from Dagestan, Russia

open access: yesCaucasian Entomological Bulletin, 2020
Abstract. The genus Calymmochilus Masi, 1919 and the species C. dispar Bouček et Andriescu, 1967 are recorded for the fauna of Russia (the south-eastern regions of Dagestan, the North-Eastern Caucasus) for the first time. Species of this genus are not difficult to distinguish from other Eupelmidae. The best character for recognizing almost all European

The cynipid gall wasp Diplolepis rosae is more successful in North America than in Europe because of enemy release

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 800-810, September 2024.
We found differences in parasitism rates and gall size between D. rosae populations in North America (Nearctic) and Europe (Western Palearctic). While North American populations have lower parasitism rates, suggesting decreased pressure from natural enemies, they also exhibit significantly larger gall sizes compared with their European counterparts ...

Primeros datos sobre los eupélmidos asociados a agallas en Cataluña (Hym., Chalcidoidea, Eupelmidae) con la descripción del macho de Macroneura seculata (Ferrière, 1954) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
In this paper we deal with five species of eupelmids associated with galls, of which Macroneura vesicularis (Retzius), M. seculata (Ferrière), Eupelmus annulatus Ness and E. splendens Giraud are the first records for Catalonia. The male of M. seculata is

The Chalcidoidea bush of life: evolutionary history of a massive radiation of minute wasps

open access: yesCladistics, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 34-63, February 2024.
Abstract Chalcidoidea are mostly parasitoid wasps that include as many as 500 000 estimated species. Capturing phylogenetic signal from such a massive radiation can be daunting. Chalcidoidea is an excellent example of a hyperdiverse group that has remained recalcitrant to phylogenetic resolution.

Ecology and Economic Impact of the Invasive Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae; Halyomorpha halys) in the Utah Agricultural Landscape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB) is a major insect pest that causes economic loss to a diversity of U.S. fruit and vegetable crops, and invades homes and human structures, causing nuisance issues for homeowners.
