Aristophanes: Wasps
This is the first book-length study dedicated to Aristophanes’ Wasps (422 BCE), which is arguably one of his most hilarious and inventive comedies.At the heart of Wasps is a comic conflict between an Athenian father named Philocleon and his son Bdelycleon; at stake are issues of political discourse, the judicial system, social class and mental illness.Alongside Aristophanes’ striking scenes involving a chorus of citizen wasps, a dog trial, and a concluding dance-off between tragedy and comedy, the reader is shown the theatrical genius of the playwright which is able to find the humor in the political, social and generational problems of his time. Ideal for students with no experience in Greek comedy or for researchers wanting an updated analysis of the play, this book explores Wasps in terms of Aristophanes’ particular brand of Old Comedy, its historical context, innovative stagecraft and its reception up until the present day.While early modern playwrights such as Ben Jonson and Jean Racine tended to co-opt memorable scenes from Wasps such as the dog trial, more recent productions have interpreted the play as a political comedy about the fragility of democratic institutions.This is the ideal companion for anyone studying Wasps and its effect on later theater.

Are there large African wasps in Spain?
Yes, there are large African wasps in Spain. The species known as the "Africanized honey bee" or "killer bee" has made its way to Spain from Africa. These aggressive bees are larger and more dangerous than European honey bees, posing a threat to both humans and native bee populations. Efforts are being made to control their spread in Spain to minimize their impact on the environment and public safety.

Do wasps eat other wasps?
Yes, some species of wasps are known to be predatory and will hunt and eat other insects, including other wasps. These predatory wasps may capture and paralyze their prey before feeding on them or bringing them back to their nest to feed their larvae. However, not all wasp species are predatory, and some may primarily feed on nectar and other plant-based food sources.

What repels wasps?
There are several natural repellents that can help keep wasps away, such as peppermint oil, citronella, and eucalyptus. These scents are unpleasant to wasps and can deter them from coming near. Additionally, planting certain herbs like mint, basil, and thyme in your garden can also help repel wasps. Keeping your outdoor eating areas clean and free of food and sugary drinks can also help prevent attracting wasps in the first place.

Parasitoid Wasps of South East Asia
Parasitoid wasps are cosmopolitan, numerous and enormously diverse with probably one million or more species worldwide, most of which occur in the moist tropics.Their ecological importance is enormous although perhaps most evident in their major roles in the control of insect pest populations.In natural ecosystems they are integral in regulating populations of a vast number of insects, and therefore are key players in terrestrial food webs.Knowledge of their biology is still very poor because the current state of taxonomy is still in its infancy in most parts of the world.In this book, we provide an overview of the more than 30 families of parasitoid wasps that occur in the 11 countries in South East Asia.Particular emphasis is given to those most commonly encountered and reared, as well as to those used in biological control programmes.Outlines of the morphology, biology, ecology and behaviour of each family, as well as of various important subfamilies are presented.The current state of taxonomy in the region is summarised.Other chapters cover basic biology, behaviour, morphological terminology, phylogeny and methods of specimen collecting, preparation and rearing with particular relevance to the tropics.Modern molecular approaches to speeding taxonomic description of hyperdiverse taxa are considered in depth.All groups are illustrated with colour photographs. This book will be of value to professional entomologists, academics, entomology students and the growing body of amateur entomologists and insect photographers.

What about wasps?
Wasps are flying insects that are known for their distinctive black and yellow markings and their ability to sting. They are important for controlling pest insect populations and pollinating plants, but they can also be a nuisance and a potential danger to humans due to their sting. Some species of wasps are also known for building nests in and around human structures, which can lead to conflicts with people. It's important to be cautious around wasps and to take steps to prevent them from nesting in areas where they may come into contact with humans.

Are wasps slow?
Wasps are not typically slow insects. They are known for their quick and agile movements, especially when they are flying or hunting for food. Their ability to move swiftly and unpredictably can make them difficult to avoid or catch. Additionally, some species of wasps are known for their aggressive behavior, which can make encounters with them even more challenging.

Types of Wasps
There are several types of wasps, including paper wasps, yellowjackets, and hornets. Paper wasps are known for their distinctive papery nests and are generally less aggressive than other types of wasps. Yellowjackets are known for their yellow and black coloring and are often found near human habitation, where they can become a nuisance. Hornets are the largest of the three and are known for their aggressive behavior when their nests are disturbed. Each type of wasp has its own unique characteristics and behaviors.
-
Can wasps smell?
Yes, wasps have a strong sense of smell. They use their antennae to detect pheromones released by other wasps, which helps them communicate and navigate. This sense of smell also helps them locate food sources such as nectar and other insects. Overall, their sense of smell plays a crucial role in their survival and social behavior.
