This study aimed to analyze the social wasps species diversity in a cerrado vegetation at the west region of the State of Bahia. Nineteen species of social wasps were found, with Chartergus globiventris de Saussure, Chartergellus communis Richards and Metapolybia cingulata (Fabricius) being recorded for the first time for the State of Bahia. The arboreous cerrado showed a higher species richness (S=19) and diversity (H'=2.33) than the agroecossistems (farms) (S=8; H'=1,84). However, nest abundance was higher at the agroecossystems (N=107 nests) than at the arboreous cerrado (N=87 nests). The physiognomy of 'cerrado campo sujo' showed the lowest abundance of social wasps colonies (N=61 nests) and intermediate values of species richness (S=13) and diversity (H'=2.20).
本研究旨在分析巴伊亚州西部地区塞拉多植被中群居黄蜂的物种多样性。共发现19种群居黄蜂，其中球形查氏胡蜂、普通查氏胡蜂和带纹异腹胡蜂为巴伊亚州首次记录。树木繁茂的塞拉多地区的物种丰富度（S = 19）和多样性（H' = 2.33）高于农业生态系统（农场）（S = 8；H' = 1.84）。然而，农业生态系统中的蜂巢数量（N = 107个蜂巢）高于树木繁茂的塞拉多地区（N = 87个蜂巢）。“脏塞拉多草原”地貌的群居黄蜂群落数量最少（N = 61个蜂巢），物种丰富度（S = 13）和多样性（H' = 2.20）为中等水平。
