Abstract:

Cleptoparasitic wasps and bees smuggle their eggs into the nest of a host organism. Here the larvae of the cleptoparasite feed upon the food provision intended for the offspring of the host. As cleptoparasitism incurs a loss of fitness for the host organism (offspring of the host fail to develop), hosts of cleptoparasites are expected to exploit cues that alert them to potential cleptoparasite infestation. Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) could serve as such cues, as insects inevitably leave traces of them behind when entering a nest. By mimicking the host's CHC profile, cleptoparasites can conce

Abstract:

Cuckoo wasps (Chrysididae, Hymenoptera) are known for their parasitoid or cleptoparasitic life histories. Indeed, the biology of only a few species has been studied in detail and often only little more is known than the host species. By mimicking their hosts’ cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profiles, species that parasitize single (or a few closely related) host species manage to deceive their hosts. However, the variability of the CHC profile in generalist cuckoo-wasp species is still unknown. Here, we used gas chromatography—mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and DNA barcoding to study intraspecific vari

Abstract:

Insect brood parasites have evolved a variety of strategies to avoid being detected by their hosts. Few previous studies on cuckoo wasps (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae), which are natural enemies of solitary wasps and bees, have shown that chemical mimicry, i.e., the biosynthesis of cuticular hydrocarbons (CHC) that match the host profile, evolved in several species. However, mimicry was not detected in all investigated host-parasite pairs. The effect of host range as a second factor that may play a role in evolution of mimicry has been neglected, since all previous studies were carried out on host

Abstract:

In a study on the host association of the cuckoo wasp, Chrysis fulgida L., at two nesting sites in Northern Italy, it was observed emerging from nests of the mason wasp, Symmorphus crassicornis (Panzer). Although other species of eumenine wasps nested in the same area, none of them was attacked by this parasitoid. Parasitism rate per nest ranged from 0% to 66.3%, 45.8% on average. The number of parasitized cells did not decrease either with the thickness of the nest closing plug or with the length of vestibular cell. No differences in the number of cells per nest or in the length of vestibular

Abstract:

The work provides data on the dynamics of the abundance of 205 taxa from 19 genera: Cleptes, Colpopyga, Elampus, Omalus, Philoctetes, Pseudomalus, Hedychridium, Hedychrum, Holopyga, Chrysidea, Chrysis, Euchroeus, Chrysura, Pseudochrysis, Spinolia, Spinolia, including species rare and new for the fauna of the North Caucasus and Russia. By the nature of the population dynamics, five groups of cuckoo wasps were identified: spring – represented by 7 species from 4 genera; spring-summer – 76 species from 10 genera; summer – 113 species from 16 genera; summer-autumn – 4 species from 2 genera and spr

Abstract:

Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHC) abound on the surface of arthropods. In spite of their simple structure (molecules of carbon and hydrogen atoms), they provide pivotal functions in insects: their hydrophobic properties confer the insects a means to regulate water balance and avoid desiccation, whereas their diversity has enhanced their use as signals and cues in a wide range of communication and recognition processes. Although the study of CHC in insects over the past two decades has provided great insight into the wide range of functions they play, there is still a gap in understanding how they d

Abstract:

Abstract Gold wasps or cuckoo wasps are common names often applied to the family Chrysididae. Their frequently metallic coloration justifies the former, and cleptoparasitic habits refer to the latter. This brilliant aspect is best observed on a sunny day as the female wasp is searching a nesting site of a favoured wasp host. The sunlight reflects from the parasite and seems to accentuate the metallic colours—blue, green, purple, red, copper, brass, and gold—in various combinations. Most chrysidids are small and, although not all are brilliant, the tiny ones often make up for in colour what the
