Description
The dataset comprises biodata on specimens of different wasps (Hymenoptera: Eumenidae, Vespidae, Masaridae, Sapygidae) held in the fund collection of the Institute for Evolutionary Ecology NAS Ukraine. Additionally, specimens are found in the private collections of V. Gorobchyshyn and Y. Protsenko. These samples were collected during various expeditions and excursions across different regions of Ukraine, spanning the period from 1987 to 2022. All specimens are preserved as dry specimens on pins. Identification of insect samples was carried out by A. Amolin, A. Fateryga and Y. Protsenko.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 479 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Sampling Methods
The dataset comprises data on specimens collected from 1987 to 2022. The material on wasps was collected during numerous expeditions in different administrative regions of Ukraine. Different entomological methods were used to capture the adults, including sweeping with an air net, collecting separate individuals from flowers, wood, leaves, and other surfaces, using pan traps, trap-nests, and Barber traps. The captured specimens were narcotized in the field with ethylene glycol or preserved directly in 96% ethanol. Various identification keys were employed to identify species. The specimens were typically studied using an MBS-9 microscope. The material is housed in the collections of the Institute for Evolutionary Ecology NAS Ukraine, as well as in the private collections of V. Gorobchyshyn and Y. Protsenko.
