Paper wasps are a diverse tropical group within the family                 Vespidae, and their social behavior and complicated nest                        architecture have been the subjects of considerable study.  Dr.                 James Carpenter proposes an analysis of the evolution and                       classification of the species in the Polybia genus-group.  The                  study will use a combination of adult characters revealed by                    electron microscopy, larval morphology, and nest architecture.                  New approaches to data analysis will result in a reconstruction                 of the group's evolutionary relationships.  Taxonomic keys and                  guides to identification will also be produced.                                      An evolutionary classification of the paper wasps would have               impact beyond the confines of taxonomic specialists.  Dr.                       Carpenter proposes to construct the framework on which a variety                of behavioral, biogeographic, and functional hypotheses can be                  tested.  This study will open the door to a diverse array of                    comparative research projects.
