Paper Wasp (Polistes cavapyta)
Author's comments:
Transportando un individuo de Macrodactylus sp. que se había convertido en plaga de las flores del ingá (Inga uruguensis). La avispa se posó en las hojas y comenzó a ingerirlo. La "plaga" casi desapareció por completo luego de la actividad de las avispas. ¿Qué sucedería si sólo por miedo a las picaduras la gente hace desaparecer a las avispas...? La imagen no está linda pero el registro es interesante.
