Remarks on Behavior of Horse Guard Wasps (Hymenoptera, Crabronidae, Bembicinae) and Interrupted Hematophagism of Horse Flies (Diptera, Tabanidae) | Chapter 06 | Recent Advances in Biological Research Vol. 6
During studies on tabanid fauna on
Marambaia Island, Mangaratiba, Brazil, the authors captured 71specimens of two
species of solitaire sand wasps hunting horseflies, Stictia punctata
(Fabricius, 1775) and Stictia signata signata (Linnaeus, 1758). Wasps interact
with horseflies demonstrating outstanding behavior, interrupting the
hematophagism, which enhances tabanids ability to transmit pathogenic agents to
natural hosts.
