Coevolution of Rhagoletis hosts and their parasitic wasps
iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply indebted to my advisor, Andrew Forbes, whose encouragement and support over the years has been invaluable. I wish to thank my committee, for their guidance, support and feedback. A special thanks goes to my lab-mates Amanda Nelson, Alaine Hippee, Kristina Ottens and Eric Tvedte for driving me crazy while keeping me sane over the past five years. Thank you to Eil...

The Fauna Europaea project comprises about 230,000 taxonomic nam...
متن کاملStatus of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonoidea) in Cuba.
Current understanding of Cuban ichneumonids (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonoidea) is analysed. A new Subfamily (Tersilochinae) including 13 genera and two species are first reports for Cuba. In contrast with Braconidae, the sister group, the ichneumonids are poorly known because of the lack of local taxonomists and bacause nets, rather than interception, light and yellow pan traps have been used. Using...

متن کاملOptimal Time Allocation in Parasitic Wasps Searching for Hosts and Food
Many species of parasitic wasp feed on sugar sources such as nectar and honeydew in order to replenish their energy reserves and so extend their life expectancy, which is often correlated with higher reproductive success. Recent research suggests that carbohydrates are also a key component in flight fuel in such insects. The importance of sugar in fuelling locomotion suggests location of sugar-...
