本文报道了棒角蜂在野生、兼性和人工饲养条件下的发育历期、性比和子代生产情况。已知的主机和不同的生物学方面在以前发表的报告进行了总结和澄清。未成熟期发育时间与其他蜂属物种相当或稍长，雌性比例约为97%。总的后代数量大大低于其他Melittobia物种使用相同的主机。我们首次报道了该物种的雌性二型性。短翅型雌虫的产生数量和相对比例均高于该属其他种类。
The development time, sex ratio and offspring production of Melittobia clavicornis reared with wild, facultative and factitious hosts are presented. Known hosts and different biological aspects presented in previously published reports are summarized and clarified. Immature development time was equivalent or slightly longer than that of other Melittobia species, and the sex ratio was approximately 97% female. Total offspring numbers were considerably lower than that of other Melittobia species using the same hosts. We report female dimorphism in this species for the first time. The number and relative proportion of brachypterous morph females produced was higher than that in other species of the genus.
