Ekhaya

It lives in wet grassland, scattered shrub areas, sparse shrubs and trees, and gallery forest. In the dry season it builds nests on tree trunks in gallery forest. It is one of the most common social wasps in Central Brazil.1

Sitya ntoni?

Adults visit flowers such as Bauhinia guianensis, which contain nectar, and are likely to feed on it for energy. They carry pollen on their legs and head, and they are most likely to visit flowers in the morning and afternoon.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela

Medium-sized wasp with a blueish-black body1
Body can look metallic in certain light1
Dark, almost black wings1
Head has a projecting vertex (a raised ridge on the top of the head)1
Less dense small markings (punctation) on the first abdominal segment than S. chalibea and S. virginea1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: Other Synoeca wasps, especially its sister species S. cyanea and S. septentrionalis, which also have less punctation on the first abdominal segment. S. chalibea and S. virginea have denser punctation on that segment, so this is one way to tell them apart.1

Amandla etyhefu yokuluma nokuhlaba

Ukuhlaba

Ityhefu iphuma ngenaliti yokuhlaba.

Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?

Its sting injects serotonin, a chemical also known as a neurotransmitter. Serotonin is a vasoconstrictor, meaning it narrows blood vessels, which could potentially be lethal to small animals. In people, it causes severe pain.1

Its sting is painful. The wasp only stings in defence, not to attack. Stings can leave the wasp's barbed stinger in the skin, and the wasp dies afterwards.1

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

When a colony is threatened, workers perform buzzing runs, shaking from side to side and contacting other members, which warns the colony to swarm. Individual wasps may also sting, and the stinger stays in the victim.1

Ukuba siyahlaba

Krwela inaliti yenyosi uyikhuphe uze upholise indawo.
Ukuba umntu uphefumla kanzima, ubuso okanye umqala wakhe uyadumba, okanye uziva ngathi uza kufa isiqaqa, yimeko kaxakeka ye-aleji: tsalela inombolo kaxakeka kwaye usebenzise ipeni yakhe ye-adrenaline ukuba unayo.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba siyakuhlaba: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

When the wasp stings, its barbed stinger stays in the victim, and the wasp dies. This is called sting autotomy.1

The sting also releases alarm pheromones, which mark the target as a threat for the colony to deal with if it returns.1

Some older workers, over 21 days old, may eat large larvae and pupae before leaving the nest. This is called brood cannibalism.1

Queens are chosen through ritual dominance displays, in which potential queens face off, sometimes bending their abdomens.1

Colonies swarm together as a group. Scouts lay down scent trails so the other wasps can follow them to a new nest site.1

Scouts release scent from a special gland called the Richards' gland while they drag their body along the trail.1
