A survey of research on the paper-wasp, covering taxonomy and phylogeny, natural history (nesting behaviour, social organization, orientation and natural enemies), and other topics of interest such as the evolution of co-operation, social parasitism, kin recognition and the division of labour.
The diversity of social behaviour among birds and primates is surpassed only by members of the Hymenopteran insects (bees, ants, and wasps). The paper-wasps are a large and varied group, and have been studied extensively by a wide range of biologists interested in the evolution of sociality. This book is unusual in combining synthetic reviews and new, unpublished data with original ideas.
