Hello. I am an undergraduate student in 4th year biology. I am required to
write a research paper for my Insect Biosystematics course and the genus I
have chosen is Temnostoma. I decided on this after keying out a specimen in
my collection as Temnostoma alternans. I found this specimen interesting
because when I collected it, I was convinced it was a wasp.
However, I have found the information Temnostoma to be very limited. I was
wondering if anybody could direct me to some research. Some areas I would
like to cover include nomenclatorial history (who described it etc.), keys
available, zoogeography and anything else that remains to be discovered
about Temnostoma.
Thank you for your time in this regard,
