Abstract:

The invasive hornet Vespa velutina Lepeletier, which first invaded South Korea in 2003, has spread throughout the country, significantly affecting apiaries, ecosystems, and human health. Xenos spp. (Xenidae, Strepsiptera) are primarily parasitic to social wasps, with V. analis being the only known host in Korea. Until recently, no parasites or parasitoids on V. velutina had been discovered. In 2020, strepsipteran parasites were discovered on 11 hornet workers in Andong City, South Korea. These parasites, comprising four larvae and seven pupae, were all male, except for one individual of an und

Abstract:

Parasite growth in hosts depends on their hosts’ nutritional status. This study examined whether the body size of the strepsipteran parasite Xenos oxyodontes, which parasitizes the eusocial wasp Vespa analis, is affected by several key factors, including host body size. We collected V. analis using bait traps for three years in Niigata, Japan, and evaluated the number of male and female X. oxyodontes parasites throughout the seasons. A total of 185 female parasites were collected, and their cephalothorax widths were measured. The widths of female parasites did not statistically vary among seas

Abstract:

Two new species of Strepsiptera from the genus Zethus Fabricius, 1804 (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) are described. Although the stylopisation of the genus Zethus has been known for almost a century, we provide the first description of its strepsipteran parasites. Zethus brasiliensis fuscatus R. Bohart & Stange, 1965 is parasitised by Eupathocera zethisp. nov. in the Neotropical Region (French Guiana) and Zethus favillaceus Walker, 1871 by Deltoxenos impressussp. nov. in the Afrotropical Region (Kenya). An independent switch to the same host genus is supported by molecular and morphological data.

Abstract:

SUMMARYHost castration represents a mechanism used by parasites to exploit energy resources from their hosts by interfering with their reproductive development or to extend host lifespan by removing risks associated with reproductive activity. One of the most intriguing groups of parasitic castrators is represented by the insects belonging to the order Strepsiptera. The macroparasite Xenos vesparum can produce dramatic phenotypic alterations in its host, the paper wasp Polistes dominula. Parasitized female wasps have undeveloped ovaries and desert the colony without performing any social task.

This article 'Strepsipteran Parasites of Rice Leafhoppers and Planthoppers in the Philippines' appeared in the International Rice Research Newsletter series, created by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The primary objective of this publication was to expedite communication among scientists concerned with the development of improved technology for rice and for rice based cropping systems. This publication will report what scientists are doing to increase the production of rice in as much as this crop feeds the most densely populated and land scarce nations in the world.

Abstract:

Xenos is a strepsipteran genus parasitizing hornets of the Vespa spp. In Japan, parasitism levels in hornets have been examined for two Xenos species. These studies have indicated that parasitism levels vary with the seasons but are inconsequential compared to other potential factors that reduce the number of host colonies. However, a comprehensive analysis of parasitism levels accounting for various factors such as host species, seasons, and years was not conducted. To address this gap, we conducted a four-year study in which we collected Vespa spp. using bait traps and assessed parasitism le

The parasitism of two groups of host-manipulating parasites of hornets was examined in Kyoto, Japan. Vespa mandarinia (661 individuals), V. simillima (303), V. analis (457), V. ducalis (158), V. crabro (57), and V. dybowskii (4) were collected either by bait trap or hand collection with an insect net, and examined for their parasites. An endoparasitic nematode, Sphaerularia vespae was isolated from three overwintered gynes of V. mandarinia and a gyne of V. ducalis. While endoparasitic insects, Xenos spp., were recovered from 13 V. mandarinia, 77 V. analis, two V. ducalis, and three V. crabro,

The mutual relationship between genera or even between species are not known, except for the species list and the host specification. Moreover, there is an anambiguous use of their species concept.

This thesis is focused to population genetics of selected species of genus Stylops in Europe. Within this genus, five species was analysed by usage of two approaches - microsatellite analysis in Stylops ater and analysis of mitochondrial DNA in all five species. Mitochondrial gene for cytochome c oxidase (1st subunit) was used. For microsatellite analysis was performed bayesian clustering analysis and ABC approach (Aproximate Bayesian Computation). Mitochondrial markers were processed by making haplotype networks and demography analysis by computing Bayesian skyline plots. For Stylops ater, su

Abstract I first met Bill at Imperial College, London, and he struck me as a quiet but very hard-working scientist. I was researching leafhoppers then, which are not strange and unusual insects, so other than polite greetings we did not engage in long conversations. However, when Bill came to Oxford in 1984 we met often to talk about Strepsiptera, as I had begun working seriously on this group in 1979. Bill was curious about all things strange—hence his interest in these bizarre entomophagous parasites. He regularly stopped by my room to chat about the latest find in Strepsiptera. It was just

Abstract:

Abstract Strepsiptera are unique entomophagous parasitoids with free-living adult males and females that are neotenic and permanently endoparasitic in the host, except in the family Mengenillidae. The hosts include Thysanura, Blattodea, Mantodea, Orthoptera, Hemiptera, Diptera, and Hymenoptera. Of the 532 species described so far, 67 have been recorded from the Neotropics. The first instar larva is free-living and is the host-seeking stage of the parasitoid (Figs 27.2, 27.3). It usually parasitizes a host nymph (if the host is an exopterygote), or a host larva (if the host is an endopterygote)
