Colin Purrington<p>As always, the tunnels in my insect hotel's observation panel got used by grass-carry wasps (genus Isodontia). They provision their nests with tree crickets. <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/InsectHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InsectHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/wasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wasps</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/isodontia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>isodontia</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insects</span></a></p>
Colin Purrington<p>Mexican grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia mexicana) dragging a paralyzed tree cricket into its nest. The species is now in Europe, too, showing up first in France in the early 1960s. <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/wasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wasps</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insects</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/entomology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>entomology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/BeeHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/InsectHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InsectHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/isodontia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>isodontia</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/sphecidae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sphecidae</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/orthoptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>orthoptera</span></a></p>
Colin Purrington<p>Managed to get a photograph of the parent today. Given the all-black color and pale hair I think this is a Mexican grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia mexicana). <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/wasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wasps</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insects</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/entomology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>entomology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/BeeHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/InsectHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InsectHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/isodontia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>isodontia</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/sphecidae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sphecidae</span></a></p>
Colin Purrington<p>UPDATE: Here's the wasp larva after just three (3!) days eating tree crickets.

Colin Purrington<p>Exciting news: a grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia sp.) has moved into the observation panel at my insect hotel. The shiny yellow object on the right is the wasp egg. The tree crickets are all alive but paralyzed. <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/wasps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wasps</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/insects" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insects</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/entomology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>entomology</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/TreeCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TreeCricket</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/BeeHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeeHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/InsectHotel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InsectHotel</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/isodontia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>isodontia</span></a> <a href="https://flipping.rocks/tags/sphecidae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sphecidae</span></a></p>
