Cresson-1873

Guides

  • Didineis texana

    Didineis texana is a species of sand wasp in the family Crabronidae, subfamily Bembicinae, tribe Alyssontini. It is one of several species in the genus Didineis, which are small to medium-sized wasps adapted to sandy habitats. The species was described by Cresson in 1873 and is known from the southern United States and Mexico. Like other members of its tribe, it is likely a predator of small insects, though specific biological details remain poorly documented.

  • Neothlipsis cincta

    Neothlipsis cincta is a species of parasitoid wasp in the family Braconidae, first described by Cresson in 1873. It belongs to a genus of small wasps that are parasitoids of other insects. Records indicate this species has been documented in North America and Oceania. As with many braconid wasps, it likely plays a role in biological control by parasitizing host insects, though specific host associations for this species remain poorly documented.

  • Stizus texanus

    Stizus texanus is a species of sand wasp in the family Crabronidae, first described by Cresson in 1873. It belongs to the tribe Stizini within the subfamily Bembicinae. The species is distributed in North America and Middle America, with museum holdings documented from the UCR Entomology Research Museum. As a member of the Crabronidae, it is likely a predatory wasp, though specific biological details for this species remain poorly documented in available sources.

  • Wroughtonia frigida

    Wroughtonia frigida is a species of parasitoid wasp in the family Braconidae, first described by Cresson in 1873. The genus Wroughtonia belongs to the ichneumonoid wasp superfamily, a diverse group of parasitoids that attack other insects. Very little is known about the specific biology of this species. The species name 'frigida' suggests an association with cold environments, though this has not been explicitly documented.
