Bembicinae
Centrifugal wasp ( bembiX rostrata )
Bembicinae is a subfamily of Crabronidae within the grave wasps ( Spheciformes ) which occur with about 1700 species worldwide. It includes after Pulawski (2009 ) 81 genera in three tribes. In Europe, the subfamily with 149 species is represented in 19 genera. Their main area of distribution are the warmer countries. The group was originally made as a subfamily Nyssoninae to the Sphecidae.
Features
The types of Bembicinae have almost all a laterally widened by plate-like laminae mesonotum, which overlap the base of Tegula more or less. The Jugum of the hind wings is shorter than the Submedianzelle. The front wings have three Submarginalzellen. For all species except for the tribe Bembicini the rails have ( tibiae ) of the middle legs two apical spurs.
Way of life
Most species feed their brood with Gleichflüglern, but also butterflies, Hymenoptera, lacewings and dragonflies it be hunted. Some species are Kleptoparasiten other species of the subfamily. The Bembicini three quarters of all types are specialized in Diptera. The nests are laid in the ground. The females feed their nest either alone or parasitize the nests of other wasps. The first set of one or more nests by digging with the mandibles and the front legs. Many species have for a number of grave short spines on the front legs.
