Anoplius illinoensis is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae. [1] [2] [3]
Desmanthus is a genus of flowering plants in the mimosoid clade of the subfamily Caesalpinioideae of the pea family, Fabaceae. The name is derived from the Greek words δεσμός (desmos), meaning "bundle", and ἄνθος (anthos), meaning "flower". It contains about 24 species of herbs and shrubs that are sometimes described as being suffruiticose and have bipinnate leaves. Desmanthus is closely related to Leucaena and in appearance is similar to Neptunia. Like Mimosa and Neptunia, Desmanthus species fold their leaves in the evening. They are native to Mexico and North, Central and South America. Members of the genus are commonly known as bundleflowers. Donkey beans is another common name and originated in Central America, where Desmanthus species are highly regarded as fodder for these domestic draught animals.
Desmanthus leptolobus, known as prairie mimosa, prairie bundleflower or slenderlobe bundleflower, is a flowering plant of the genus Desmanthus. It is native to Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas and has spread to Missouri and New Mexico. It is often locally abundant over large expanses of rolling prairie.
Desmanthus illinoensis, commonly known as Illinois bundleflower, prairie-mimosa or prickleweed, is a common plant in many areas of the south central and Midwestern US.
Potamogeton illinoensis, commonly known as Illinois pondweed or shining pondweed, is an aquatic plant. It provides food and cover for aquatic animals.
Larisa is a genus of moths belonging to the subfamily Olethreutinae of the family Tortricidae. It contains only one species, Larisa subsolana, which is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Ontario, Quebec, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia.
Anoplius is a genus of spider wasps in the family Pompilidae, called the blue-black spider wasps.
Anoplius nigerrimus is one of the most common spider wasps, or pompilids, in Europe. They are mostly black and the females are 6–8 mm long while males measure 5–8 mm. This species may be distinguished from the related Anoplius concinnus and Anoplius caviventris by the 20 setae, or hairs, on the forehead rather than 60 or 45.
Oxalis illinoensis, the Illinois woodsorrel, is a species of flowering plant in the woodsorrel family (Oxalidaceae). It is endemic to the United States, where it found in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee. The limits of the range of this species are unclear due to its similarity to Oxalis grandis, with which there has been confusion.
Anoplius viaticus, commonly known as the black-banded spider wasp, is a species of spider wasp. These wasps are known as spider wasps because the females capture spiders to provide their offspring with food. The paralysed spider is cached in a burrow, the wasp lays an egg on it, and when this hatches, the developing wasp larva consumes the spider. This species is found in sandy heathland across most of Europe.
Anoplius virginiensis is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius subcylindricus is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius cleora is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius apiculatus is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius aethiops is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae. It primarily lives in overgrown fields with fine-grained soil. It provisions its young with paralyzed Lycosidae spiders, especially those of the genus Hogna.
Anoplius atrox is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius carolinus is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius semirufus is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius ithaca is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae.
Anoplius depressipes is a species of spider wasp in the family Pompilidae. It is a known predator of fishing spiders from the genus Dolomedes, and the wasp is highly adept at walking on the surface of water.
Ceropales bipunctata, the Two-Speckled Cuckoo Spider Wasp, is a species of diurnal, kleptoparasitic spider wasp in the family Pompilidae. It is an obligate kleptoparasite, meaning that it must rely on the captured provisions of other spider wasps and cannot capture its own. It is found on the Atlantic Coast of North America, north to New Brunswick, Canada. It feeds on nectar primarily from goldenrods, and also other common nectaring plants. It is known to lay an egg on the prey of other pompilids, including the two species Anoplius cleora and Anoplius aethiops. Eggs are laid in the book lung of the spider. These wasps also sometimes lay an egg on prey from spider-hunting wasps in the family Sphecidae.
