Ropalidia Atra
''Ropalidia'' is a large genus of eusocial paper wasps in the tribe Ropalidiini distributed throughout the Afrotropical, Indomalayan and Australasian biogeographical regions. The genus ''Ropalidia ''is unique because it contains both independent and swarm-founding species. '' Ropalidia romandi'' is one of the swarm founding species, meaning that new nests are founded by a large group of workers with a smaller number of inseminated females (egg-laying foundresses), while '' Ropalidia revolutionalis'' is independent-founding, meaning that each nest is founded by a single foundress. Species ''Ropalidia'' contains the following species: * '' Ropalidia aethiopica'' * ''Ropalidia albobalteata'' * ''Ropalidia amabala'' * ''Ropalidia anarchica'' * ''Ropalidia andamanensis'' * ''Ropalidia antennata'' * ''Ropalidia aristocratica'' * ''Ropalidia artifex'' * '' Ropalidia atra'' * '' Ropalidia australis'' * '' Ropalidia bambusae'' * ''Ropalidia bensoni'' * ''Ropalidia bicincta'' ...

Life and work Guérin-Méneville changed his surname from Guérin in 1836. He was the author of the illustrated work ''Iconographie du Règne Animal de G. Cuvier 1829–1844'', a complement to the work of the zoologists Georges Cuvier and Pierre André Latreille, '' Le Règne Animal'', which illustrated only a selection of the animals covered. Cuvier was delighted with the work, saying that it would be very useful to readers, and that the illustrations were "as accurate as they were elegant". He also introduced silkworm The domestic silk moth (''Bombyx mori''), is an insect from the moth family Bombycidae. It is the closest relative of ''Bombyx mandarina'', the wild silk moth. The silkworm is the larva or caterpillar of a silk moth. It is an economically imp ...s to France, so they could be bred for the production of silk. ...
