Dados Sobre o Projeto
Hornets pose significant risks to pollinator-dependent crop production, threatening food security and ecosystem health. This study provides a spatial evaluation of current and future exposure of pollinator-dependent crops to hornet predation, focusing on the potential impacts of their predatory behaviour on insect pollinator populations. More than half of current hornet observations globally are concentrated in areas with high pollination dependent crop production of southern Asia, central Europe, and North America, where they can cause the greatest harm. Up to 6 % of global pollinator-dependent croplands are projected to become hornet hotspots by 2070. Crops under highest exposure to hornets include soybeans in North America, apples in Europe and watermelon in Asia. Hornet expansion, facilitated by global shipping and climate change, increases pressure on insect pollinator populations, negatively affecting crop yields and quality. We emphasize the need for effective management strategies, including early detection and control measures, to mitigate these risks. This research provides critical spatial insights to inform policy decisions aimed at safeguarding pollination services essential for sustainable agriculture.

Métodos de Amostragem
we carried out an extensive bibliographic review in search of occurrences present in papers published in English in Google Scholar and Web of Science. We employed keywords such as (“Vespidae” OR “Vespa” OR “hornet”) AND (“occurrence” OR “distribution” OR “native” OR “invasive”) until November 2023 to identify relevant studies. Considering that many events are not published in scientific outlets because they are chance or isolated encounters, we also performed a Google search in English. Some of these occurrences only mentioned the location where individuals were found (village, city, or region), that were georeferenced through the Google Geocoding API, which returns central geo-coordinates.

| Introduction | This study aims to provide the first spatial evaluation of the risks posed by hornets to crop sustainability worldwide. To address the complex interaction between hornet species and agricultural sustainability, we formulated the following hypothesis: (a) areas of highest hornet species richness coincide with regions where both native and introduced populations occur; (b) the potential distribution of hornet species will expand into new regions under future climate scenarios, particularly into areas currently considered less susceptible, thereby increasing invasion risk; (c) hornet distributions significantly overlap with regions that have a high concentration of pollinator-dependent crops and strong reliance on pollination services. The severity of impacts from natural hazards such as predatory hornets depend on the degree of exposure and vulnerability to these risks (Cardona et al., 2012). In this study, exposure is quantified by the current occurrence of hornets and the modelled environmental suitability for hornets, under a scenario where they expand into the most accessible and suitable areas of their ecological niche. Vulnerability is based on the level of pollinator-dependent crop production susceptible to hornet predation (Gallardo et al., 2024). Thus, areas with very high levels of pollinator-dependent crop production and that are suitable for hornet establishment are considered especially vulnerable. Our particular objectives are to 1) map the global distribution of hornet species richness (= real exposure), identifying the areas where different hornet species are found, allowing us to understand the real exposure to these species across various regions; 2) map the current global occurrence of pollinator-dependent crops that may be vulnerable to hornets (=vulnerability), identifying and locating crops that depend on pollination and may be vulnerable to predation by hornets, and assessing the degree of vulnerability of agricultural systems to the threat posed by these hornets; 3) model the potential expansion of hornets under current and future 2070 climate conditions (= potential exposure), allowing us to anticipate areas that could become more susceptible to hornet invasion in the future; 4) identify hotspots of invasion (=risks), by combining information on hornet species richness and the vulnerability of crops, and identifying areas for developing effective management and mitigation strategies. Our research focuses on the 22 currently described species of hornets (Vespa spp.) (Perrard et al., 2013). Considering all hornet species in this study ensures greater insight into their potential expansion, identifying areas where they could establish if introduced, as well as the risks they pose to pollination-dependent crops.
