  • Delta higletti

    Delta higletti is a species of potter wasp in the subfamily Eumeninae, first described by Meade-Waldo in 1910. The genus Delta comprises solitary wasps known for constructing mud nests with characteristic pot-shaped cells. Records for this species remain limited, with 39 observations documented on iNaturalist suggesting it is infrequently encountered or understudied. As with other eumenine wasps, females provision nest cells with paralyzed prey, primarily caterpillars, to feed developing larvae.
