Unrelated Helpers in a Primitively Eusocial Wasp: Is Helping Tailored Towards Direct Fitness? [PDF]

, 2010
The paper wasp Polistes dominulus is unique among the social insects in that nearly one-third of co-foundresses are completely unrelated to the dominant individual whose offspring they help to rear and yet reproductive skew is high.

Nestmate Copulation in the Neotropical Eusocial Wasp Polistes Instabilis de Saussure (Hymenoptera: Vespidae)

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 1994
Copulation between individually marked nestmates of the Neotropical eusocial wasp Polistes instabilis is reported. Polistes copulations are rarely observed in the field; this observation is the first documented case of nestmate copulation in the genus ...

Differential gene expression and protein abundance evince ontogenetic bias toward castes in a primitively eusocial wasp. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Polistes paper wasps are models for understanding conditions that may have characterized the origin of worker and queen castes and, therefore, the origin of paper wasp sociality.

Expansion and Accelerated Evolution of 9-Exon Odorant Receptors in Polistes Paper Wasps

bioRxiv, 2020
Independent origins of sociality in bees and ants are associated with independent expansions of the odorant receptor (OR) gene family. In ants, one clade within the OR gene family, the 9-exon subfamily, has dramatically expanded.

Record of Parasitoids in nests of social wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae: Polistinae)

Sociobiology, 2015
The aim of this study was to record the parasitoid species found in social wasps nests sampled in different localities in Brazil and investigate the existence of preferential host-parasite associations in different tribes of Neotropical paper wasps.
