Hi Pete,
Thank you very much for this fascinating
explanation.
On another note, a few years ago, when the European
Wasp arrived in the ACT there was considerable concern that they may/would
cause the extinction of some local insects and the insect population would
never be the same again. Do you know if anyone has studied the impact
of EWs on the local insect fauna and if so has there been any serious impact on
them?
There appears to have been a drop in EW numbers to
me locally in the last couple of years. Is anyone monitoring the EW
population?
