Occurrence Remarks:
Cells with Chalcoela iphitalis larvae webbing can be easily seen in this photograph. The adult P. annularis ...These wasps often stop attempting to raise their own larvae but maintain a presence at the nest, they moths do not show up usually until late May at the earliest which gives the host wasps time to rear at least some offspring. All five nests I checked at the Utley cabin have succumbed to this predator moth.
