Assessing predation pressure of Vespa velutina on local fauna through DNA metabarcoding
Journal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 4, Page 329-338, August 2025.This study investigates the predation pressure exerted by the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina) on native insect populations in Mallorca, using DNA metabarcoding to analyze their diet. Results reveal a diverse prey spectrum, including key insect groups such as Apidae (bees), Calliphoridae (blowflies), and Vespidae (wasps), with no ...
