The Book of Songs·Odes·Cooing Dove: ‘Corn earworms have larvae, wasps carry them away to their hives.’ Here, wasp refers to a parasitic bee (Rhynchium bruneum) that catches corn earworms, a kind of small green insects, and keeps them in its hive so as to lay eggs in their bodies; when the eggs are hatched, they feed on the corn earworms. In ancient times this phenomenon was misinterpreted and thus was wrongly believed that wasps did not breed offspring but instead fed corn earworms as their offspring. Hence the allusion of corn earworm to an adopted son.} |
