  • Stable Fly (Stomoxys calcitrans) and Cecropia caterpillar (Hyalophora cecropia) it had bit. In my observations, the Stable Fly always did the initial damage, which then attracted the Yellowjackets. Undamaged caterpillars always fended off the wasps.

  • A foraging Eastern Yellowjacket (Vespula maculifrons) approaching an injured Cecropia (Hyalophora cecropia) caterpillar that had been eating on lilac leaves. In my observations, the wasps left uninjured caterpillars alone. Biting Stable flys (Stomoxys calcitrans) often caused the initial damage, which weakened them and attracted the Yellowjackets.
