Philanthus Pacificus Arizonae
Beewolves (genus ''Philanthus''), also known as bee-hunters or bee-killer wasps, are solitary, predatory wasps, most of which prey on bees, hence their common name. The adult females dig tunnels in the ground for nesting, while the territorial males mark twigs and other objects with pheromones to claim the territory from competing males. As with all other sphecoid wasps, the larvae are carnivorous, forcing the inseminated females to hunt for other invertebrates (in this case bees), on which she lays her eggs, supplying the larvae with prey when they emerge. The adults consume nectar from flowers. The prevalent European species, '' P. triangulum,'' specializes in preying upon honey bees, thus making it a minor pest for beekeepers. Other ''Philanthus'' may specialize in other bee species or they may be generalists which prey upon a wide variety of bees such as the American bumblebee, '' Bombus pensylvanicus'', or other hymenopterans, including conspecifics. They are notable ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
