Circadian rhythms differ between sexes and closely related species of Nasonia wasps.

TL;DR: Differences in circadian activity patterns and parameters between species may reflect synchronization of specific life-history traits to environmental conditions and could reflect scheduling mating or dispersion to a specific time of the day to avoid interspecific hybridization in Nasonia species that live in sympatry.

Quantitative trait locus analysis of mating behavior and male sex pheromones in Nasonia wasps

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the RS-HDL pheromone plays a role in the mating system of N. giraulti and N. oneida, but also that additional communication cues are involved in mate choice and points at a polygenic architecture of female choice with strong environmental influences.
