Caption:
This illustration is an enlarged section of PHIL 24448, entitled “Stinging Hymenoptera: Pictorial Key to Some Common United States Families,” created by vector-borne disease expert Harold George Scott, PhD, and entomologist Chester J. Stojanovich. The original image depicts various stinging hymenopteran insects based on morphologic characteristics, including the presence or absence of wings, pronotum length, the presence or absence of hind tibial spurs, and whether the eyes extend to the mandibles. This enlarged view highlights two bee families: Andrenidae (sweat bees) on the left and Apidae (honey bees) on the right.
