  1. Potter Wasp Nest
    4 September 2025

    I found these potter wasp nests while pruning the plants on my balcony last September. Apparently I’m doing something right; I’ve noticed new species every year since I started planting native wildflowers around the property. Should I start logging observations?

    Yesterday was the first time I’ve seen potter wasp nests in my garden. These vespids can be beneficial, collecting beetle larvae and caterpillars to provision their offspring. They lay a single egg in each pot and seal the entrance.

  11. Saw this extremely convincing wasp-mimicking hoverfly, _Spilomyia_ (bugguide.net/node/view/3288), on the goldenrod in the garden today! Then on the way to the store saw plenty of the "model", _Ancistrocerus_ wasps (bugguide.net/node/view/6812), also on goldenrod.

  16. Dit jaar al twee soorten deukmetselwespen in de tuin met zekerheid gedetermineerd: links de Symmorphus bifisciatus, en rechts de Symmorphus Crassicornis (♀️ ).
    Meer soorten van deze familie kan ik in m'n kleine tuin niet verwachten.😃 #wespen #wasps # Hymenoptera #Eumeninae #insectodon

  19. CW: Wasp glamour shot eye contact

    This sweet girl has been the only wasp to pose for me since I've moved to Sri Lanka. She is easily the largest potter wasp (Delta pyriforme ssp. pyriforme) I've ever seen.

  29. #Symmorphus murarius, die Große #Stängelwespe (#Eumeninae) ist seit einigen Jahren vermehrt an künstlichen Nisthilfen zu beobachten. Die Weibchen sind mit einer Körperlänge von bis zu 17mm kaum zu übersehen. Trennwände und Nestverschluss bestehen aus zerkautem Pflanzenmaterial. Der Nestverschluss wird zum Schluss noch mit zerkauten Holzfasern getarnt. Als Larvenproviant werden Blattkäferlarven (v.a. Gattung Chrysomela) eingetragen.
