II. INVENTARIOS Y BIODIVERSIDAD DE INSECTOS FILOGENIA Y SISTEMÁTICA DE LOS HIMENÓPTEROS CON AGUIJÓN EN LA REGIÓN NEOTROPICAL (HYMENOPTERA: VESPOMORPHA) Fernando Fernández C. Resumen Abejas, avispas y hormigas comprenden los llamados himenópteros con aguijón (Aculeata o Vespomorpha), grupo natural en donde el ovipositor de las hembras se ha modificado en aguijón. Vespomorpha comprende en la Región Neotropical 3 superfamilias, 25 familias, 807 géneros y alrededor de 13300 especies descritas. Se ofrece una breve revisión de la sistemática y filogenia del grupo para la región, así como un listado de las familias, subfamilias, tribus, géneros y subgéneros descritos hasta el momento. Palabras clave: Filogenia, Neotropical, Sistemática, Vespomorpha.

The morphological data from Ronquist et al.

ABSTRACT Cleptoparasite bees lay their eggs inside nests constructed by other bee species and the larvae feed on pollen provided by the host, in this case, solitary bees. The cleptoparasite (adult and larvae) show many morphological and behavior adaptations to this life style. In this paper I present some data on the cleptoparasite bees whose hosts are bees specialized to collect floral oil. Key words: solitary bee, interspecific interaction, parasitic strategies, hospicidal larvae.

A MARANTE Abstract A synonymyc catalogue for the species of Neotropical Crabronidae and Sphecidae is presented, including all synonyms, geographical distribution and pertinent references. The catalogue includes 152 genera and 1834 species (1640 spp. in Crabronidae, 194 spp. in Sphecidae), plus 190 species recorded from Nearctic Mexico (168 spp. in Crabronidae, 22 spp. in Sphecidae). The former Sphecidae (sensu Menke, 1997 and auct.) is divided in two families: Crabronidae (Astatinae, Bembicinae, Crabroninae, Pemphredoninae and Philanthinae) and Sphecidae (Ampulicinae and Sphecinae). The following subspecies are elevated to species: Podium aureosericeum Kohl, 1902; Podium bugabense Cameron, 1888.

Their decline has been attributed to several human-derived influences including global warming as well as the reduction, alteration and loss of bees’ habitat. Moreover, together with human expansion comes along the introduction of exotic plant species with negative impacts over native ecosystems. Anthropic effects may have even a deeper impact on communities adapted to extreme environments, such as high elevation habitats, where abiotic stressors alone are a natural limitation to biodiversity. In these, human-borne alterations, such as the introduction of exotic plants and urbanization, may have a greater influence on native communities.

Hymenoptera, Chrysididae, cuckoo wasps, parasite specialization, trap nest, Chrysis, host specificity Abstract. Cuckoo wasps (Chrysididae) are a medium-sized and widespread family of Hymenoptera whose species are generally para- sitoids or cleptoparasites of solitary wasps and bees. The identities of the hosts are known from various studies and occasional records; however the utility of such data is often low due to unstable taxonomy of the species and the inappropriate methods used to determine the host species. Therefore, despite numerous publications on the subject, the host-parasite relationships of cuckoo wasps are poorly understood. Moreover, a revision of existing literature reveals that cuckoo wasps are often unreasonably considered to be unspecialized (i.e., sharing host species). In this study we use an accurate method (trap-nests) to determine the host relationships of Estonian cuckoo wasps of the genera Chrysis and Trichrysis and determine their level of specialization. 568 trap nest bundles (each containing 15–20 single reed stems) were established at 361 locations across Estonia during the vegetation periods of 2009–2011.
