Figs wasp sale video from Turkey

Nice !!!!!  :-D

That is a lot of fig-wasps!

Given the right timing/distribution, there should be
enough of them to caprify all the figs in the whole USA.

Are those all the male wasps? I did not notice any of them flying around.

NO; only the females do the flying around.

Them poor males never see the sunshine.
They have some fun with the ladies and
then they just die inside the caprifig...

Meanwhile, the females after finding a new
right fig host, they shed their wings while entering
through the eye. They caprify the new host with
pollen from the old host and try to lay eggs for the
next wasp generation and then die inside.

Don't worry; by the time the fruit ripens, all dead
wasp material will be digested by the developing fruit.

Referring to my last sentence above, I forgot to mention one other bizarre/complex fact.

Female fig flower 'style' can be either short or long.
The female wasp can only deposit her eggs through the short ones.

Most 'common' figs have a long flower style, so the fig wins;
seeds are viable and fruit is edible. Wasp looses - no babies.

Most caprifigs have a short flower style; both fig and wasp win/benefit;
another generation of fig  'pollinating/capriying' wasps is born.

A very much more complex fact, is the sex-genetics involved (and I do not fully understand it!)
of how the Common, San Pedro, Smyrna and Caprifigs fig-types are actually conceived...

Thanks Aliok
I remember the times when no one had mobile phones and now even a 2 year old kids carries it..
same for these wasps i hope...
