title: Honey Caches Help Female Paper Wasps (Polistes annularis) Survive Texas Winters.
abstract: Polistes annularis females store honey in their nests in autumn. They return to their nests on warmn winter days, eat honey, and defend itfrom non-sisters. Honey deprivation decreases numbers surviving the winter; females that do survive without honey build smaller spring nests.
