Abstract

Abstract The paper presents new data on the nesting habits of the digger wasp Alysson spinosus (Hymenoptera: Bembicidae). As food for larvae, the female provisioned about 7–8 hemipteran nymphs or imagines per cell. The collected prey belongs to two families of true hoppers (five species of Delphacidae and one species of Cicadellidae). Nests are built in sandy, shaded areas, and consist of a 10–12 cm long main burrow with 1–3 brood cells. Both sexes search for food (honeydew) on the leaves of lilac or small-leaved linden. The nests were infested by the dipteran kleptoparasitic Metopia argyrocephala (Diptera: Sarcophagidae). The mature larva is similar to that of the Nearctic Alysson melleus, from which it differs in having a blunt apical mandibular tooth and more prominent setae on the clypeus and labrum.

小蜂幼虫的筑巢行为及描述(膜翅目:蠓科)

摘要本文提供了挖掘蜂Alysson spinosus（膜翅目：蜂科）筑巢习性的新资料。作为幼虫的食物，雌性为每个细胞提供大约7-8个半翼虫若虫或想象。收集到的猎物属于两个真正的蝗虫科（五种蟾蜍科和一种蝉科）。巢穴建在沙质、阴凉的地区，由一个10-12厘米长的主洞穴和1-3个孵化细胞组成。两性都在丁香或小叶菩提树的叶子上寻找食物（蜜露）。巢穴中寄生着双翅目盗贼寄生虫Metopia argyrochala（双翅目：Sarcophagidae）。成熟的幼虫与近北海鳗相似，不同之处在于下颌顶端牙齿钝，盲肠和阴唇上有更突出的刚毛。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
