There is a photo of Brachygastra (Nectarinia) scutellaris. I'll send you a link to the site later.

Some data on Br. scutellaris: length-7 mm, discovered by Fabricius in 1804. Distribution Costa Rica, Suriname . Guiana. In general, the genus Brachygastra has 16 species.

and where do you get this information

You have to collect it bit by bit. Recently, more and more scientific papers on South American wasps have appeared on the Internet. But still, in general, there is very little information - of these 16 nectarine species, I know something worthwhile only about 3 species - about the remaining 13 - practically nothing.

Yes, it's a pity that there is an international quarantine,I would introduce them to the CIS, but in general, this is my dream!Go to Brazil and....

In my opinion, all tropical paper wasps are highly developed polysts, because they are similar to them both in appearance and in the way of nest structure

Yes, it's a pity that there is an international quarantine,I would introduce them to the CIS

I wouldn't recommend -"
Colorado potato beetle won, too, "introduced" ...

That's it. Let them live where they live. umnik.gif

At the expense of introduction-so it is unlikely.... After rainforests, the cool climate of extratropical Eurasia is not likely to appeal to nectarines. It is easier ( and closer) to introduce , for that matter, East Asian vespins - the climate there is whiter similar to ours. But again , such an introduction can lead to unexpected consequences - for example, if East Asian hornets take root , they can evict Vespa crabro , and other wasps will have a hard time - after all, hornets will hunt them first.

Yes, I do not need East Asians at all,we have enough predators of our own, but nectarines, this is a unique group of paper wasps-honeybees, vegetarians,and their nest structure, like bees, is easier to translate to the framework system

where do you get this information


There is such a summary:

Richards, O.W. 1978. The social wasps of the Americas excluding the Vespinae // British Museum (Natural History), London. 580 pp. + 4 pl.

There (pp. 162-176) is enough information about some species of Brachygastra.

Is it properly written in English, in human, and not in Spanish or Portuguese?For the summary respect jump.gif beer.gif

Well, naturally. This is also a monograph by Professor O. Richards, who worked at the British Museum, and was and is still a luminary for many donkey farmers. wink.gif

Yes , I agree, Richards is a real expert! And how many species described....
