Abstract | The nesting behaviour of the cockroach-hunting solitary wasp Penepodium luteipenne (Fabricius, 1804) is
described, including five different nesting tactics: digging of new nests, use of pre-existing burrows in the
soil, brood parasitism of open nests, brood parasitism of closed nests, and nest usurpation. Observations
of a peculiar female territorial behaviour are also provided. Knowledge of the behaviour of other species
of the tribe Podiini is summarized and compared with the behaviour of P. luteipenne. This study is based
on nesting females observed in the Biological Reserve of Poço das Antas, an area in southeastern Brazil
covered by Atlantic Forest. | pt_BR |
