Parachartergus
''Parachartergus'' is a genus of epiponine social wasps belonging to the subfamily Polistinae. Species include: *'' Parachartergus amazonensis'' *''Parachartergus apicalis'' - known to form mutualistic relationships with treehoppers. The male genitalia are noted for their movements of "startling complexity". *'' Parachartergus aztecus'' *'' Parachartergus colobopterus'' - unusually nests contain several queens. The species is docile, preferring to leave the nest than mount an attack. *'' Parachartergus griseus'' (Fox, 1898) *'' Parachartergus fasciipennis'' (Ducke, 1905) *'' Parachartergus flavofasciatus'' *''Parachartergus fraternus ''Parachartergus fraternus'' is a neotropical, swarm founding, polistine wasp species that is distributed throughout Central and South America.Leonardo, Paula C., Flavio R.

Parachartergus Fraternus
''Parachartergus fraternus'' is a neotropical, swarm founding, polistine wasp species that is distributed throughout Central and South America.Leonardo, Paula C., Flavio R. Andrade, and Fabio Prezoto.

''Sociobiology'' 42 (2003): 735–43. Web. 11 Oct. 2014. They live in nests in second growth tropical dry forests, near pasture fields, roadside areas, and urban areas as well.Olson, Eric J.

These wasps eat insects, such as caterpillars of Lepidoptera. They also drink nectar, honeydew, and water.Mateus, Sidnei, Fernando Barbosa Noll, and Ronaldo Zucchi.
