温带纸黄蜂P. snelleni Saussure的孤雌工蜂在田地里产卵。18个孤巢中有15个（83.3%）产生雌蜂后代。平均39.4%的性别后代为雌性。通过解剖含有精子的精囊，证实了工蜂的交配。在实验室里，不允许交配的孤儿工人不会产生雌性后代。通过单性生殖产生雌性卵子是不可能的。
The orphaned workers of a temperate paper wasp, P. snelleni Saussure, laid female-producing eggs in the field. Female worker offspring were produced in 15 (83.3%) of 18 orphaned nests. On the average, 39.4% of the sexed offspring were females. Mating by workers was confirmed by dissection of spermathecae, which contained sperm. In the laboratory, orphaned workers not allowed to mate did not produce female offspring. Production of female eggs by thelytokous parthenogenesis is unlikely.
