- Observation Four native Ficus species hosted 34 sampled wasp species.
- Observation Four wasp species occurred on multiple Ficus hosts.
- Observation Neotropical fig pollinators Pegoscapus and Tetrapus were most abundant and host-specific.
- Association Fig wasp samples from the same host had higher Jaccard similarity, indicating host-specific community composition.
- Observation Fig wasp networks showed low connectance and low partner diversity.
- Observation Fig wasp networks showed high bidimensional Shannon H2’.
- Observation Fig wasp communities formed modular webs, with each host and associated insects representing a module.
- Observation The analyzed fig wasp communities were highly specialized despite some species lacking strict host specificity.
