“…The location of resources in natural environments may be uncertain, given that contexts constantly change. Accordingly, behavioral flexibility is linked to diverse learning and memory processes (e.g., D'Adamo & Lozada, , , , ; Lozada & D'Adamo, , , ; Geva et al ., ; Wilson‐Rankin, , ). The successful establishment and possible spread of invasive species into new territories may be due, among other factors, to behavioral plasticity when facing situations of change (e.g., Beggs et al ., ; Lozada & D'Adamo, ).…”

“…When a V. germanica forager finds an abundant food source it makes several foraging flights between the resource and the nest, where larvae are fed. During this behavior, the wasp associates food with spatial, odor and visual cues (e.g., D'Adamo & Lozada, , , , , ; Moreyra et al ., ; Lozada & D'Adamo, , , ). These learning processes enable them to return to a plentiful resource that can suffer unpredictable position changes over consecutive visits; it is common to see dogs and birds of prey, among other large animals, displace or remove resources which wasps are foraging on (Lozada & D'Adamo, , ).…”
