The native and exotic prey community of two invasive paper wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in New Zealand as determined by DNA barcoding

Matthew W. F. Howse et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the diet of the exotic European paper wasp and closely related congener in New Zealand, finding that both species mainly consume Lepidopteran insects but also other orders. There were significant differences in prey between the two wasp species, although these differences may be driven by limited sample size. The diet of these wasps includes both native and introduced species, with potential impacts on agricultural pests and local biodiversity.

Summary of classical biological control introductions of entomopathogens and nematodes for insect control

Ann E. Hajek et al.

Summary: The 2016 catalogue of classical biological control introductions of entomopathogens and nematodes targeting arthropod pests in 55 countries revealed that some programs using pathogens highly specific to pest species have been highly successful and should be further explored.

Invasive paper wasps have strong cascading effects on the host plant of monarch butterflies

Rose A. McGruddy et al.

Summary: The study found that the invasive paper wasp has led to substantial declines in local butterfly populations in New Zealand, with the monarch butterfly being particularly affected. Field experiments demonstrated the strong predation pressure exerted by the wasp on monarch caterpillars, as well as the cascading effects on milkweed plants. The presence of the invasive predator was found to initiate a trophic cascade, positively affecting the fitness of milkweed plants.

Nesting Ecology and Colony Survival of Two Invasive PolistesWasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in New Zealand

Rose McGruddy et al.

Summary: The invasive paper wasp species Polistes dominula prefers suburban and coastal environments, with higher abundance and colony survival rates compared to Polistes chinensis. P. dominula nests are larger and more productive, posing a potential threat to native species in these areas. Management efforts should focus on protecting native species in suburban and coastal environments.

Timing and duration of light exposure during conidia development determine tolerance to ultraviolet radiation

Guilherme T. P. Brancini et al.

Summary: The research found that short and timed light exposure can enhance the UV tolerance of Metarhizium and induce spores with increased photoreactivating capacity. These spores retain their tolerant characteristics even after being transferred to dark environment for many days. Mature spores of Metarhizium can still respond to light and regulate UV tolerance, suggesting that gene expression is possible even in dormant spores.

Behavioral Responses of the Social Wasp Polistes myersi to Prey Infected with Fungi Used in Biological Control

Daniela Mayorga-Ch et al.

Summary: The study found that social wasps Polistes myersi can detect certain entomopathogenic fungi, showing a preference for healthy prey. It also highlighted the impact of the fungi on wasp behavior and larval mortality.
