Resting metabolism and critical thermal maxima of vespine wasps (Vespula sp.)

Vespine wasps are known for their high endothermic capacity. Endothermic activity is directly linked to respiration. However, knowledge on wasp respiration is sparse and almost nothing is known about their resting metabolism. We investigated the yellowjackets’ CO(2) production in a flow-through resp...
