Spider Wasp
Wasps in the family Pompilidae are commonly called spider wasps, spider-hunting wasps, or pompilid wasps. The family is cosmopolitan, with some 5,000 species in six subfamilies. Nearly all species are solitary (with the exception of some group-nesting Ageniellini), and most capture and paralyze prey, though members of the subfamily Ceropalinae are kleptoparasites of other pompilids, or ectoparasitoids of living spiders. In South America, species may be referred to colloquially as or , though these names can be generally applied to any very large stinging wasps. Furthermore, in some parts of Venezuela and Colombia, it is called , or "horse killers", while in Brazil some particular bigger and brighter species of the general kind might be called /, or "throat locker". Morphology Like other strong fliers, pompilids have a thorax modified for efficient flight. The metathorax is solidly fused to the pronotum and mesothorax; moreover, the prothorax is best developed in Pompilidae ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sphictostethus
''Sphictostethus'' is a genus of pepsine spider wasps which has a dispersed southern Pacific distribution which encompasses Chile, eastern Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand, and is very similar to the distribution of the southern beeches of the genus ''Nothofagus''. The type species is '' S. gravesii'', but the genus's greatest diversity is in Australia, especially in the more humid and temperate south east, with one species, '' S. insularis'', endemic to Lord Howe Island Lord Howe Island (; formerly Lord Howe's Island) is an irregularly crescent-shaped volcanic remnant in the Tasman Sea between Australia and New Zealand, part of the Australian state of New South Wales. It lies directly east of mainland P .... Species The species in the genus ''Sphictostethus'' include: *'' Sphictostethus aliciae'' (Turner, 1914) *'' Sphictostethus calvus'' Harris 1987 *'' Sphictostethus connectens'' (Turner, 1915) *'' Sphictostethus dorrigoensis'' Krogmann & Austin 2011 *'' Sp ...

Pepsis
''Pepsis'' is a genus of spider wasps belonging to the family Pompilidae. Species within this genus are also called tarantula hawks, as they usually hunt tarantulas, similarly to many species in the genus '' Hemipepsis''. These wasps are restricted to the Americas, with the related genus ''Hemipepsis'' occurring in both Old and New Worlds. Species Species within this genus include: *'' Pepsis achterbergi'' Vardy, 2005 *'' Pepsis aciculata'' Taschenberg, 1869 *'' Pepsis adonta'' Vardy, 2005 *''Pepsis albocincta'' Smith, 1855 *'' Pepsis amyntas'' Mocsáry, 1885 *''Pepsis apicata'' Taschenberg, 1869 *'' Pepsis aquila'' H.

Java (wasp)
Java (; id, Jawa, ; jv, ꦗꦮ; su, ) is one of the Greater Sunda Islands in Indonesia. It is bordered by the Indian Ocean to the south and the Java Sea to the north. With a population of 151.6 million people, Java is the world's most populous island, home to approximately 56% of the Indonesian population. Indonesia's capital city, Jakarta, is on Java's northwestern coast. Many of the best known events in Indonesian history took place on Java. It was the centre of powerful Hindu-Buddhist empires, the Islamic sultanates, and the core of the colonial Dutch East Indies. Java was also the center of the Indonesian struggle for independence during the 1930s and 1940s. Java dominates Indonesia politically, economically and culturally. Four of Indonesia's eight UNESCO world heritage sites are located in Java: Ujung Kulon National Park, Borobudur Temple, Prambanan Temple, and Sangiran Early Man Site. Formed by volcanic eruptions due to geologic subduction of the Austral ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
