Pond frog as a predator of hornet workers: High tolerance to venomous stings

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Some animals use stingers to repel attackers, and some predators have evolved tolerance to such stings, enabling them to consume venomous prey. For example, social wasps, such as hornets, use modified ovipositors as venomous stingers to inject venom, which can cause intense pain in humans.

Urban landscapes tend to increase the presence of pathogenic protozoa, microsporidia and viruses, but likely decrease the abundance of viruses in wild bees and wasps

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 1911-1925, December 2025.
• The bees Anthophora plumipes and Osmia cornuta had a higher occurrence probability of the neogregarine protozoan Apicystis bombi in more fragmented urban areas.• In the bee Halictus scabiosae and wasp Polistes dominula, hotter urban areas increased the likelihood of occurrence of viruses.• The viruses were found to be replicative in the samples, and ...

Mixed effects of urbanization on pollination services among four native plant species

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 1184-1195, December 2025.
We tested urbanization and fragmentation effects on pollination services using four native phytometer species that were deployed across 10 community gardens located in suburban and densely urbanized areas Landscape context generally did not influence pollination; however, for one of four phytometers (Lobelia siphilitica, pictured above) urban cover ...

Unveiling Wasps as Potential Pollinators: Floral Traits and Wasp Sociality Intensify Network Centrality in a Highly Diverse Tropical Ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1520-1531, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Wasps, members of over 90 hymenopteran families, exhibit diverse behaviours, including pollination, predation and parasitism. While wasps are known pollinators in specialised systems, such as the intricate mutualism of fig trees and the deceptive pollination of certain orchids, they have historically been considered ineffective pollinators ...
