Identification of Hymenoptera (wasps, bees, ants)

Found in the attic in a jar of honey these os. MO.

what region is the attic located in?

MO is the Moscow region

what region is the attic located in?

Hmm... Let's reformulate the question: what about honey potatoes?
I will explain: Alex 2611 was not confused by our species at all-Vespa orientalis Linnaeus, 1771 (top photo).

Ah I misunderstood)

By the way, can anyone help me? (previous page)

That's right, like you're reading minds.
And I don't know about Sceliphron in the Moscow region either. I just don't know if she goes there.

So Vespa orientalis? I've never seen them.

I'm in the Moscow region too

Where does Vespa orientalis come from in the MO?

My question is: where does Cimbex femoratus (Linnaeus, 1758) come from in a jar of honey? Has anyone ever seen them fly to honey? Or the devil confused me to ask the question in such a way-as I have never seen such a thing myself
Something "fills" the author in my opinion

Go to Egypt (there are plenty of them)

Perhaps the color changed, from being in honey

Help the OS determine. Mordovia, 28.09.2011.

Help me identify my operating systems. They've been hanging for a long time. Surely after all banals

What's the point? What was in the honey was there. I don't know why he wants honey...

No. 3-Obykn. the hornet?

aha
, then something like Ammophila, then Sceliphron
about Cimbex already told

What, you still haven't answered? This is Polistes sp.
Before the species, I did not understand this genus, but there were experts on the forum who identified representatives of this genus at times.

about Cimbex has already been said

And how do I find out the view?

And how do I find out the view?

according to thick books called determinants )))))))

please tell me who it is I came across at the end of May in the Voronezh region "shipov les"

Male Lestica clypeata (L., 1767) if not error

Ilyukh, are there any other similar species in this genus? can I take a picture of individual parts? it's very similar to this one, but still...
his paws are funny, I didn't know that males have such webs (I just don't know webs at all)

In males, Crabro sp. and close childbirth front legs are very interesting.

I'm afraid I won't be able to say it clearly, but I would like a larger photo gallery.

Here are the larger" spare parts"

Here are the larger" spare parts"...

This is definitely a male Lestica clypeata (Schreber, 1759). Of our species, only they have such wide first segments of the front legs.

Found in the attic in a jar of honey these os. MO.

001-Vespa orientalis Linnaeus, 1771 (Vespidae, Vespinae) - eastern hornet. It is not found in the MO, and in general in Russia there is only in the south itself
002-Cimbex femoratus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Cimbicidae, Cimbicinae) - birch mace sawfly
003 - Vespa crabro Linnaeus, 1758 (Vespidae, Vespinae) - common or European hornet
004 - Ammophila sabulosa (Linnaeus, 1758) (Sphecidae, Ammophilinae) - Ammophila sand
005-Sceliphron destillatorium (Illiger, 1807) (Sphecidae, Sceliphrinae) - Sceliphron vulgaris (sometimes called Pelopean in the old-fashioned way)

This is some obvious mistake, if not a " provocation”.
Of all the species shown, only hornets (001, 003) can be “interested” in honey. The rest of us don't need it at all. Well, the birch sawfly is a predator at all…

PS
By the way, it would be interesting to know what method the author used to clean the specimens from honey, even if the micro-pollination was not affected...

Both specimens are Polistes nimpha (Christ, 1791) (Vespidae, Polistinae).
Above is a male, below is a female.

Alexander Valentinovich, won't you look at mine? - previous page, it's been hanging for more than a week.

help with Dolerus. if you can tell something from these photos.

Doesn't that sound like Messor? This is Camponotus, most likely a regular vagus.

thank you. I'm still very far from goosebumps

Purely on a whim, I have never disassembled these comrades and there is nothing to disassemble one thing only there is, and the photos are not particularly informative

1. Scolia hirta
2. Scolia sexmaculata

Posted in larvae, but there is silence. Who could it be? I suspect a sawfly egg of some sort.

Thank you so much for your help! Here's another question. Yesterday I found either a clutch or a pupa on a spruce conifer. So, the Moscow region (Kratovo), the end of February. The length is about 2 mm. Who is it?

Alexander Valentinovich, won't you look at mine? - previous page, it's been hanging for more than a week.

No, I can't say exactly up to the species, but you yourself indicated the genus correctly. The definition of Nysson is largely based on sculpture, which is difficult to show in pictures.
But I can send you a pdf * of P. G. Nemkov's review in the Eurasian Journal (there is no link to it on the Internet). You can easily figure it out for yourself. Just send me an empty email.

thank you. I'm far from having goosebumps yet

Messor refers to myrmicins, in which the stem consists of two segments, and here only one is clearly visible. So, this is formicin.
Well, on the muzzle of the face-a clear Camponotus.

then, imho, this is Brachystegus scalaris (= Nysson scalaris), just as the bembex colony was nearby

Sorry, I couldn't resist

Tell me what this wasp is. In the photo, it closes the nest cavity with a diameter of 4.5 mm in a bar of wood.

Some kind of Symmorphus (Vespidae, Eumeninae). It is more difficult to get to the view, since you can't see the sculpture, etc., and it is difficult to tell from the drawing - the variability is great.
