    Description / Table of Contents: Resume Parischnogaster nigricans serrei présente quatre stades larvaires. La larve ne file pas le cocon et la cellule est fermée par les femelles adultes: après quelques jours celles-ci réouvrent l'opercule pour extraire le méconium larvaire et referment de nouveau la cellule. La durée totale de la vie larvaire et pupale est en moyenne de 44.5 jours. Les interactions adultes-larves sont fréquentes et les larves lovées réagissent à des stimulations des adultes en s'ouvrant comme des sphincters. Les adultes peuvent transférer la nourriture d'une larve à une autre. L'existence d'une trophallaxie larve-adulte est encoreincertaine. Les femelles de rang élevé dans la hiérarchie se reposent généralement sur les cellules operculées.
    Notes: Summary Parischnogaster nigricans serrei has 4 larval instars. The larva does not spin a cocoon and the cell is closed by adult females, who reopen the operculum a few days later to extract the larval meconium, then close the cell again. Immature life lasts an average of 44.5 days. Adult-larva interactions are frequent and the curled up larvae react to adult solicitations by opening themselves like sphincters. Food can be transferred by the adults from one larva to another. The existence of larva-adult trophallaxis is still uncertain. High ranked females rest on operculated cells.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume Parischnogaster jacobsoni, qui a été étudiée en Malaisie, a de longs nids linéaires et présente une fondation du nid haplométrotique. Dans les colonies mûres on retrouve communément plus d'une femelle fertilisée et au moins une femelle qui peut pondre. Les interactions de dominance-subordination sont liées au potentiel reproductif des femelles et à la division du travail. La biologie, l'architecture du nid et l'organisation sociale de cette espèce ressemblent à celles deParischnogaster nigricans serrei, qui a été étudiée à Java.
    Notes: Summary Parischnogaster jacobsoni, studied in Malaysia, presents long linear nests and haplometrotic nest foundation. In mature colonies more than one fertilized female and at least one potential egg layer can be found. Dominance-subordinance interactions are correlated with the reproductive potential of the females and with the division of labour. This species resemblesParischnogaster nigricans serrei, studied in Java, in its biology, nest architecture and social organization.

    Notes: Summary Queens ofPolybioides tabidus differ from workers of the same species in the presence of very much longer bristles on the eyes and head and in the size of some morphological characters. The presence/absence of eye bristles in queens/workers of P. tabidus is the first qualitative morphological caste difference reported in the Polistinae.

    Polistes biglumis bimaculatus epicuticular hydrocarbons and nestmate recognition (Hymenoptera, Vespidae) (1997)

    Keywords: Key words:Polistes, epicuticular hydrocarbons, nestmate recognition, discriminant analysis, colony signature.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary: An experimental analysis was conducted to determine if chemicals from the cuticle of a social wasp are used in nestmate recognition. These chemicals were also subsequently identified. Laboratory colonies of Polistes biglumis bimaculatus were presented with (1) dead nestmates and dead non‐nestmates, (2) dead nestmates and dead non‐nestmates that were subjected to solvent‐washing to eliminate epicuticular compounds and (3) dead nestmates and dead non‐nestmates that were treated again with extracts of nestmates or non-nestmates. Behavioural responses (acceptance or rejection of introduced wasps) by colony residents showed that they were able to discriminate between dead nestmates and dead non‐nestmates and that they used epicuticular substances to perform the discrimination process. The GC‐MS analyses of the epicuticular compounds showed that they consisted of a blend of hydrocarbons. Multivariate analysis of individual hydrocarbon profiles of wasps from different colonies showed that colonies had distinct hydrocarbon profiles.

    Nonaggressive usurpation of the nest ofPolistes biglumis bimaculatus by the social parasiteSulcopolistes atrimandibularis (Hymenoptera Vespidae) (1990)

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume Le parasite socialSulcopolistes atrimandibularis envahit le nid dePolistes biglumis bimaculatus un certain temps après sa fondation mais avant l'éclosion de la première ouvrière hôte, quand la fondatrice est encore seule. Le comportement des parasites et des hôtes a été observé dans de petites cages en laboratoire. Les femellesS. atrimandibularis envahissent pacifiquement les colonies dePolistes et ne réagissent pas aux attaques initiales de la fondatrice. Le parasite évite les contacts avec la reine hôte quand elle se trouve sur le nid, mais devient plus actif et dominant après quelques heures. De cette façon, le parasite subjugue la reine hôte sans l'attaquer. Il est possible que le succès de cette invasion extrêmement prudente soit dû à une forte composante pheromonale. Tant la période d'usurpation que la stratégie non agressive de l'invasion du nid sont supposés être une adaptation au climat de montagne sous lequel ces espèces vivent.
    Notes: Summary The social parasiteSulcopolistes atrimandibularis invades the nest ofPolistes biglumis bimaculatus after nest initiation, during the pre-emergence colony stage, when only the foundress is present. The colony behaviour of the parasites and the hosts was observed in small glass boxes in the laboratory. S. atrimandibularis females passively invadePolistes colonies and do not react to the initial attacks by the foundresses. At first, the parasite avoids contact with the host queen when she is on the nest, but after a few hours she becomes more active and dominant. In this way, the parasite subdues the host queen without fighting her. It is possible that the success of this invasion process is due to a strong pheromonal component. Both the timing of usurpation and the non aggressive strategy of nest invasion are thought to be adaptations to the mountain climate where the two species live.

    Biology and social behaviour of three species ofAnischnogaster (Vespidae, Stenogastrinae) in Papua New Guinea (1991)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Level of social organization, adult behaviour, size and development of the brood in three species ofAnischnogaster are described. The normal colony size in all the three species was one female per nest, and colony size never exceeded two females per nest. The social interactions, which were only observed in one species, did not include any marked dominance behaviour, but there was clear caste differentiation, with the older female guarding the nest while the younger female foraged for food. InAnischnogaster sp. A only some eggs and larvae have abdominal secretion, while no secretion at all was found on the eggs and larvae ofA. laticeps. In spite of this, the Dufour's gland was found to be well developed. The significance of this is discussed. Females ofA. laticeps were found to fall into two groups distinguished by the length of the sting. The larvae seem quite similar to those of other Stenogastrinae and have, apparently, only four instars.
