Beyond Deception: What Else Do Flower Wasps (Hymenoptera: Thynnidae: Thynninae) Do in Flowers Worldwide?

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wasps, although less recognised as good pollinators, also feed on nectar and pollinate flowers. Specialised pollination systems, such as orchids that mimic the pheromones of female wasps to attract males, are complex and specific. This interaction occurs with some Thyninnae wasps that also visit flowers to obtain nectar and perform other ...

Spatial Interpolation in Applied Insect Ecology: A Review, Including Guidelines and Datasets for Practical Use

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spatial interpolation represents a fundamental approach in applied insect ecology, offering insight into species distributions and supporting biodiversity analysis, pest management and disease vector mapping. Insects—including important pollinators—face escalating threats due to habitat loss, climate change and anthropogenic pressures. As data‐

Shedding Light on Shining Leaf Chafers: Rutelinae MacLeay, 1819 (Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea, Scarabaeidae) as a Neglected Group of Pollinators

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interactions between insects and angiosperms date back to millions of years ago. Among the groups of pollinating animals, it is estimated that insects are responsible for pollinating more than 70% of angiosperms. Coleoptera is one of the most studied insect groups for pollination.

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, EarlyView.
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 ...
