In Trinidad, West Indies the social wasps Angiopolybia pallens and Polybia rejecta come to foam nests of the frog Engystomops pustulosus, where they prey on eggs and tadpoles. Frog offspring in early-stage foam nests appear to be almost immune to predation by the wasps, but they become more vulnerable as the nests age and lose definition.

观察新热带社会黄蜂(膜翅目、胡蜂科)捕食青蛙 Engystomops pustulosus(两栖类、Leptodactylidae)的卵和蝌蚪

在西印度群岛的特立尼达,群居黄蜂 Angiopolybia pallens 和 Polybia rejecta 来到青蛙 Engystomops pustulosus 的泡沫巢中,在那里它们捕食卵和蝌蚪。早期泡沫巢中的青蛙后代似乎几乎不受黄蜂的捕食,但随着巢的老化和失去定义,它们变得更加脆弱。
