What is another word for Family Sphecidae?
Pronunciation: [fˈamɪli sfˈɛsɪdˌiː] (IPA) 
Family Sphecidae, also known as digger wasps, is a diverse group of insects that are known for their impressive hunting skills and unique nesting behavior. Some of the synonyms for this family include "sphecid wasps", "solitary wasps", and "philanthid wasps". Sphecid wasps get their name from their unique body shape which resembles a spade or shovel. Solitary wasps are so named because they do not live in large social groups like other species in the Hymenoptera order. Philanthid wasps, on the other hand, are characterized by their nurturing behavior towards their young, which also distinguishes them from other wasp species. Regardless of their name, digger wasps are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in keeping our planet's ecosystem healthy.
