Related to wasp:Wasp sting (wŏsp, wôsp) n. Any of numerous social or solitary hymenopterans of the suborder Apocrita, especially of the family Vespidae, that characteristically have a slender hairless body with a constricted abdomen, two pairs of membranous wings, a mouth adapted for biting...
particularly in cold weather. When water enters the fuel, it creates an ideal environment for bacteria, fungi, and algae to thrive. These microbes break down the fuel, leading to the formation of sludge and acids that can clog filters and damage the engine. ...

The pattern appeared to result from the mother's ovipositional choice and not from differential mortality of the sexes during development. If sex ratio manipulation is adaptive in the Florida strain, it appears to be through a benefit to daughters of developing on large hosts rather than through...
Many studies on paper wasps have shown that, after host nest invasion, Polistes social parasites change their chemical profile to match the host's odour, thus allowing their acceptance into its colony. However, a social parasite's usurpation strategy may benefit from signals that reduce or ...
Mortality of some (34 %) of the topped main shoots and of their side shoots may explain the greater benefit of ground-cutting for T. romana. Side shoots emerged within 6–8 weeks from topped main shoots after plot cutting in 2017. One year after cutting, however, regrowth main shoots in...
Because 'functional virginity' would enhance male production in populations with female-biased sex ratios, uninfected females might benefit from such a trait, assuming their sons could reproduce sexually with the majority of females in that population. 'Functional virginity' may therefore become fixed ...

Ecosystem engineers, organisms that modify the physical environment, are generally thought to increase diversity by facilitating species that benefit from engineered habitats. Recent theoretical work, however, suggests that ecosystem engineering could initiate cascades of trophic interactions that shape ...
