Cladistics, 2023 AbstractAll Epiponini wasps are polygynic, with multiple queens alternating over the colony cycle. There are several potential queens in the early stages of this cycle, but as it progresses, the number of queens is reduced. Because most individuals remain reproductively totipotent, there is great potential for conflicts over reproduction. Workers could

Molecular signatures of alternative reproductive strategies in a facultatively social hover wasp
Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, January 2024.Abstract Social insect reproductives and non‐reproductives represent ideal models with which to understand the expression and regulation of alternative phenotypes. Most research in this area has focused on the developmental regulation of reproductive phenotypes in obligately social taxa such as honey bees, while relatively few studies have addressed ...

Biogeography of the social wasp genus Brachygastra (Hymenoptera: Vespidade: Polistinae)
Journal of Biogeography, 2014 AbstractAimThe aim of this study was to understand the biogeography of Brachygastra. As the spatial component of evolution is of fundamental importance to understanding the processes shaping the evolution of taxa, the known geological history of the Neotropical region was used together with the current phylogeny and distribution of species to ...

Cryptic Nest ofMischocyttarus iheringi(Hymenoptera: Vespidae: Polistinae) with Description of Camouflage [PDF]
Florida Entomologist, 2016 Summary Camouflage is a strategy widely used by various insects in the wild. However, the use of plant material to construct nests is not a widespread habit among the Polistinae. In this study, we describe the nest of Mischocyttarus iheringi Zikan (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) with notes on the use of plant material and the wasps' behavior.
