Reclinervellus Nielseni
''Reclinervellus nielseni'' is one of the spider-ectoparasitoids belonging to the ''Polysphincta'' genus-group (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Pimplinae) and utilizes exclusively ''Cyclosa'' spiders (Araneae, Araneidae) as hosts. The species is distributed from Britain to Japan but is rather sparse. Behavior ''Reclinervellus nielseni'' is known to manipulate web-building behavior of the host spider to modify an original fragile orb-web into a simple and durable web with conspicuous web decorations. The host spider species is different in accordance with the region, that is '' Cyclosa conica'' in Europe whereas '' Cyclosa argenteoalba'' in Japan Japan is an island country in East Asia. Located in the Pacific Ocean off the northeast coast of the Asia, Asian mainland, it is bordered on the west by the Sea of Japan and extends from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea .... The modified web is derived from a pre-programmed resting web constructed before spiders ...

Cyclosa
''Cyclosa'', also called trashline orbweavers, is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Anton Menge in 1866. Widely distributed worldwide, spiders of the genus ''Cyclosa'' build relatively small orb webs with a web decoration. The web decoration in ''Cyclosa'' spiders is often linear and includes prey remains and other debris, which probably serve to camouflage the spider. The name "Cyclosa" comes from Greek 'to move in a circle', referring to how it spins its web. While most orb-web spiders face downwards in their web when waiting for prey, some ''Cyclosa'' species (e.g. ''C. ginnaga'' and ''C. argenteoalba'') face upwards. Notable members ''Cyclosa argenteoalba'' '' Cyclosa argenteoalba'' builds two types of web, a traditional sticky spider web, and a resting web that consists of just a few strands. When infected with a larva of the wasp '' Reclinervellus nielseni'', the spider switches on the behavior to build a resting web. The larva then eats the spider and use ...

Wasps
A wasp is any insect of the narrow-waisted suborder Apocrita of the order Hymenoptera which is neither a bee nor an ant; this excludes the broad-waisted sawflies (Symphyta), which look somewhat like wasps, but are in a separate suborder. The wasps do not constitute a clade, a complete natural group with a single ancestor, as bees and ants are deeply nested within the wasps, having evolved from wasp ancestors. Wasps that are members of the clade Aculeata can Stinger, sting their prey. The most commonly known wasps, such as yellowjackets and hornets, are in the family Vespidae and are Eusociality, eusocial, living together in a nest with an egg-laying queen and non-reproducing workers. Eusociality is favoured by the unusual haplodiploid system of sex-determination system, sex determination in Hymenoptera, as it makes sisters exceptionally closely related to each other. However, the majority of wasp species are solitary, with each adult female living and breeding independently ...

Ichneumonidae
The Ichneumonidae, also known as ichneumon wasps, ichneumonid wasps, ichneumonids, or Darwin wasps, are a family of parasitoid wasps of the insect order Hymenoptera. They are one of the most diverse groups within the Hymenoptera with roughly 25,000 species described . However, this likely represents less than a quarter of their true richness as reliable estimates are lacking, along with much of the most basic knowledge about their ecology, distribution, and evolution.Quicke, D. L. J. (2015). ''The braconid and ichneumonid parasitoid wasps: biology, systematics, evolution and ecology''. Chichester: John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. It is estimated that there are more species in this family than there are species of birds and mammals combined. Ichneumonid wasps, with very few exceptions, attack the immature stages of holometabolous insects and spiders, eventually killing their hosts. They play an important role as regulators of insect populations, both in natural and semi-natural systems, ...
