where do wasps fit in the food chain UNANSWERABLE how are these creatures classified as per the scientific classification in the animal kingdom? It is an insect of the narrow-waisted suborder Apocrita of the order Hymenoptera which is neither a bee nor an ant; have there been any petrified remains of this creature recovered, which proves its existence millions of years ago? Hymenoptera in the form of Symphyta (Xyelidae) first appeared in the fossil record in the Lower Triassic. Apocrita, wasps in the broad sense, appeared in the Jurassic, and had diversified into many of the extant superfamilies by the Cretaceous; they appear to have evolved from the Symphyta. Fig wasps with modern anatomical features first appeared in the Lower Cretaceous of the Crato Formation in Brazil, some 65 million years before the first fig trees. are these creatures further grouped depending on their social characteristics? Yes into social and solitary wasps ? what are the social characteristics of the first group mentioned above? Of the dozens of extant wasp families, only the family Vespidae contains social species, primarily in the subfamilies Vespinae and Polistinae. With their powerful stings and conspicuous warning coloration, often in black and yellow, social wasps are frequent models for Batesian mimicry by non-stinging insects, and are themselves involved in mutually beneficial Mülleri mimicry what is meant by the 'first' mentioned mimicry? It is a form of mimicry where a harmless species has evolved to imitate the warning signals of a harmful species directed at a predator of them both what is an example of it which portrays this mimicry? An example of this is the fly "Spilomyia longicornis", which mimics vespid wasps what is meant by the 'second' mentioned mimicry? It is anatural phenomenon in which two or more well-defended species, often foul-tasting and that share common predators, have come to mimic each other's honest warning signals, to their mutual benefit. what is the example of a species which portrays this mimicry? Tropical butterflies are one what are some of the names of the species of that insect of the narrow-waisted suborder apocrita? The most commonly known wasps are yellowjackets and hornets

Yellowjacket [SEP] Nest
"Dolichovespula" species such as the aerial yellowjacket, "D. arenaria", and the bald-faced hornet, tend to create exposed aerial nests. This feature is shared with some true hornets, which has led to some naming confusion. "Vespula" species, in contrast, build concealed nests, usually underground. Yellowjacket nests usually last for only one season, dying off in winter. The nest is started by a single queen, called the "foundress". Typically, a nest can reach the size of a basketball by the end of a season. In parts of Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands, and southwestern coastal areas of the United States, the winters are mild enough to allow nest overwintering.
