Characterization of Complete Mitochondrial Genome and Phylogenetic Analysis of a Nocturnal Wasps—Provespa barthelemyi (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) [PDF]
Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023 Genus Provespa contains nocturnal wasps mainly found in the southeastern region of Asia. There are no complete genome resources available of this genus, which hinders the study of its phylogenetic evolution and the origin of nocturnal behavior in the ...

A key to the Australian genera of Eumeninae (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) [PDF]
Records of the Australian Museum, 2021 An illustrated identification key to the genera of potter wasps occurring in Australia is presented. Hitherto there has been no published key to these genera, making routine identification impossible, and allowing taxonomic study of these wasps to be ...

Phylogenetic and Morphological Analysis of Wing Base Articulation in Vespidae (Hymenoptera): A Cladistic Approach [PDF]
InsectsInsect wing base sclerites are crucial to wing function and evolution, yet their diversity beyond order-level comparisons remains poorly understood. We examine variation in wing base sclerites across Vespidae, focusing on the axillary sclerites (1Ax, 2Ax,

Multi-Omics Analyses Elucidate the Venom Components of the Wasp <i>Vespa mandarinia</i>. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe wasp Vespa mandarinia was widely reared in Yunnan province. The venom was responsible for their aggressive behavior. Tweety proteases, hyaluronidase, venom dipeptidyl peptidase 4, and phospholipase A1 and A2 isozyme were identified. In addition, organic heterocyclic compounds, organic acids, and derivatives were found.
