Gall wasp

Within the last four years the Erythrina Gall Wasp has rapidly become a highly invasive pest in Hawaii. Facing no long-term control other than bio-control the Erythrina Gall Wasp’s cousin has been released throughout the islands to save Erythrina plants. In an interview with Nicoli Barca, a field tech with the Nature Conservancy he stated biological controls are very effective when done right. An example of its effectiveness is

1) Observation: no bugs were found except small, black, gnats were all close to the ground. Question: Why are there only gnats and close to the ground? Hypothesis 1: its because is winter. Null Hypothesis 1: its not because is winter. Hypothesis 2: its because is cloudy. Null Hypothesis 2: its not because is cloudy. Null hypothesis 1 experiment: In order to test that it is not because is winter that there are only gnats and close to the ground I am going to first find five different species

The relationship between the existence of gall on the goldenrod and the development on the plants by using aspect measurement at the Riverwood Conservatory Introduction This study shows that the present of the gall on the stems of goldenrod has a taller height of stems than the ones that without galls. The averaging about 4 feet (1.2m) in height, goldenrod is a perennial with clusters of bright yellow flowers.

There was once a bee that lived in a house. It didn’t live in a hive like normal bees. It didn’t even have its wings (we will get to that later). It walked around like people, or as one could say people who walked like bees. The thing about this bee is that this bee suffered a horrible disorder. For he was shunned by his fellow bees. Not only the bees hated him he was also hated by all of the other insects. Specially the ants. They hated his stripes. No one knew why. Maybe they were jealous of his

readers in a subdued manner. Quinn’s use of the Ichneumon wasp as a symbol for the process of human life is a subtle way of writing it. Her article starts off with a detailed description of the physical features of a Female Giant Ichneumon Wasp, which then proceeds to a biology based background explanation on the specie. During her descriptions, Quinn uses carefully chosen words that is meant to let the reader go beyond imagining the wasp and to think of it as something more. She explains “Her overall

“Wasps make a shield,” said Wasp Man. Gun shots rang out through the harbor.

The reader is then introduced to the wasp who, by some folly, has become entangled in the spider's treacherous web. Instead of immediately pouncing on the trapped wasp, the spider seems instinctively aware that the Wasp has the ability to overpower him and therefore maintains a safe distance. "Lest he should fling/ His sting./ But as afraid, remote/ Didst stand hereat." Instead, the spider is afraid that if provoked, the wasp would damage his web. "Lest he should pet,/ And in a froppish

Puerto Rico Wasp Attack We were walking down the step path in the rainforest of Puerto Rico. We spotted a dad and his daughter and started to talk them. They told us that their was river up ahead with some rocks you could walk on. We had a small conversation with them and then parted our separate ways. We decided to go check out the river. The path to get there was very dangerous and slippery, so we had to watch where we stepped. Me and my friend heard some water up ahead but it turned out to be
