Molecular phylogeny of social vespid wasps inferred from DNA sequence of 28s and Coi gene / Muhamad Arif Mohamad Jamali

Social wasps (Vespidae) display a wide range of diversity in their ecology and social organisation, providing insights imo thc origins of simple societies and the elaboration and maintenance of complex societies Cladistic analysis of behavioral data showed that Stenogastrinae have been grouped with...
