Order Hymenoptera: Bees, Wasps - English

Family Pompilidae: Spider Wasps. With most species of spider-hunting wasps, the female wasp lays only one egg on a single spider. The larger the species of wasp, the larger the spider required. The size of the spider prey determines whether the egg will give rise to a male or female wasp. Smaller prey results in an unfertilized and male-producing egg and larger prey in fertilized and female-producing egg. After stinging its prey, the wasp drags its paralyzed prey to a nesting site.
