WASP-South transiting exoplanets: WASP-130b, WASP-131b, WASP-132b, WASP-139b, WASP-140b, WASP-141b & WASP-142b [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 We describe seven exoplanets transiting stars of brightness V = 10.1 to 12.4. WASP-130b is a "warm Jupiter" having an orbital period of 11.6 d around a metal-rich G6 star. Its mass and radius (1.23 +/- 0.04 Mjup; 0.89 +/- 0.03 Rjup) support the trend that warm Jupiters have smaller radii than hot Jupiters.

WASP-South hot Jupiters: WASP-178b, WASP-184b, WASP-185b & WASP-192b [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 We report on four new transiting hot Jupiters discovered by the WASP-South survey. WASP-178b transits a V = 9.9, A1V star with Teff = 9350 +/- 150 K, the second-hottest transit host known. It has a highly bloated radius of 1.81 +/- 0.09 Rjup, in line with the known correlation between high irradiation and large size.

Seven transiting hot-Jupiters from WASP-South, Euler and TRAPPIST: WASP-47b, WASP-55b, WASP-61b, WASP-62b, WASP-63b, WASP-66b & WASP-67b [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012 We present seven new transiting hot Jupiters from the WASP-South survey. The planets are all typical hot Jupiters orbiting stars from F4 to K0 with magnitudes of V = 10.3 to 12.5. The orbital periods are all in the range 3.9--4.6 d, the planetary masses range from 0.4--2.3 Mjup and the radii from 1.1--1.4 Mjup.

Nature, 1916 REFERRING to Mr. Davis's letter, it would be interesting to know if the same dearth of wasps has been noted in the cider counties.

Differential Properties of Venom Peptides and Proteins in Solitary vs. Social Hunting Wasps
Toxins, 2016 The primary functions of venoms from solitary and social wasps are different. Whereas most solitary wasps sting their prey to paralyze and preserve it, without killing, as the provisions for their progeny, social wasps usually sting to defend their ...

Discovery of Helorus brethesi Oglobin, 1928 (Hymenoptera, Heloridae) in Honduras and Guatemala [PDF]
Check List, 2022 We report the first records of the family Heloridae in Honduras and Guatemala. We illustrate and report the presence of Helorus brethesi Oglobin, 1928 as the only species known from the Neotropics.

Ecosystem services provided by aculeate wasps
Biological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2021 The aculeate wasps are one of the most diverse and speciose insect taxa; they are omnipresent across ecosystems and exhibit diverse co‐evolutionary and exploitative associations with other organisms. There is widespread conjecture that aculeate wasps are

Males of the parasitoid wasp, Nasonia vitripennis, can identify which fly hosts contain females
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 The reproductive success of a male is limited by the number of females it can mate with. Thus, males deploy elaborate strategies to maximize access to females.
