Volucella Zonaria Poda 1761 species and phenomena which present them: mimicry, commensalism, detritophagous, predators, migration

Abstract

The university lecturer in entomology should know more insects, rather than about those with the status of „harmful insects of agricultural crops”. This status makes me notice different entomological „news” in nature. In the summer of 2016, it was just this phenomenon: drew attention to a new insect without the status of a "pest of crops". This insect was a new species for the entomofauna of the Republic of Moldova and is called Volucella zonaria Poda 1761. From this new species, the author learned interesting information for himself and told about this curious insect to students who study for agronomists on plant protection at the State Agrarian University from Moldova (SAUM). This insect has become a topic for the article, with which the national entomological heritage will be enriched by a new species and interesting data about it.
