Sirex Edwarsii
''Sirex'' is a genus of wasps in the family Siricidae, the horntails or wood wasps. They inject eggs with fungal endosymbionts into wood. The fungus is contained in a mycangium which nourishes it with secretions, and in turn it digests wood for the wasp larva. The genus includes economically important pests; ''S. noctilio'', known simply as the 'Sirex woodwasp' is an invasive species, having spread widely across the world from its original range.Sirex Woodwasp – ''Sirex noctilio''.

Sirex Noctilio
The sirex woodwasp (''Sirex noctilio'') is a species of horntail, native to Europe, Asia, and northern Africa.New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Copyright © 2011. Sirex Woodwasp – ''Sirex noctilio''. http://www.dec.ny.gov/animals/7248.html Adults vary in length from . This woodwasp is an invasive species in many parts of the world, including Australia, New Zealand, North America, South America, and South Africa, where it has become a significant economic pest of pine trees. The wasp can attack a wide variety of pine species, although some species seem to be more susceptible than others, and stressed trees often are attacked. During oviposition, the female wasp lays two eggs with or without a mucoid substance and a symbiotic fungus for the larvae to feed on once they hatch. The mucoid substance is toxic to trees and aids in tree decline. The arthrospores from the symbiotic fungus, ''Amylostereum areolatum'', are also pathogenic. Characteristics Adu ...

Sirex Juvencus
''Sirex juvencus'' is a species of horntail found in Europe, Siberia, Sakhalin Island, Japan, the Philippines, Algeria and several other countries. Its common name is steely-blue wood wasp because of its color. Description Male adults are about long, and female adults are about long. The antennae are red and brown or red and black. They exhibit sexual dimorphism, which means the male and female are morphologically different. The female body has a metallic bluish-black colour with yellowish or reddish legs, and the last part of the abdomen is triangular and wide at the base. The ovipositor, which deposits the eggs, is as long as the abdomen or a little longer. The eggs are white and elongated, and the larvae are cylindrical, white, and can measure up to . The male body has a metallic black body, with the first two sets of legs being reddish and the back legs being black. The abdomen is black with bluish-black dots on some parts of the abdomen and brownish dots on other parts. R ...

Sirex Vates
''Sirex'' is a genus of wasps in the family Siricidae, the horntails or wood wasps. They inject eggs with fungal endosymbionts into wood. The fungus is contained in a mycangium which nourishes it with secretions, and in turn it digests wood for the wasp larva. The genus includes economically important pests; ''S. noctilio'', known simply as the 'Sirex woodwasp' is an invasive species, having spread widely across the world from its original range.Sirex Woodwasp – ''Sirex noctilio''.
