Prairie yellowjackets are not considered pests but are commonly found in backyards in the Pacific Northwest.〔 This species derives its common name from the prairies and grasslands where it can be found. Its scientific name, ''atropilosa'' comes from the Latin 'atro' for black and 'pilus' for hair.〔 ==Taxonomy and phylogeny== The taxonomic status of ''Vespula atropilosa'' has been variable. ''V. atropilosa'' has not always been accepted as its own species. Bequaret (1931) considered it to be a xanthic form of ''Vespula rufa''.〔 Bohart and Bechtel (1957) considered it a subspecies of Vespula rufa but Miller (1961) recognized it as a unique species.〔 The prairie yellowjacket was formerly known as ''Vespa atropilosa'' before being moved to the genus ''Vespula''.〔 It has been described by both W.P. Sladen in 1918 and C.D.F. Miller in 1961.〔 ''V. atropilosa'' is a member of the ''Vespula'' family which comprises yellowjackets. Yellowjackets are named for their characteristic yellow and black markings. They usually have minimal hair and translucent golden-colored wings. ''Vespula'' are commonly found all over the world but are especially common in the Southwestern United States. They commonly act as pollinators for plants such as orchids, rhododendrons, squash, common milkweed, field garlic, and field pussytoes.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vespula atropilosa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
