see this! "The presence of Phylloteles pictipennis (Loe?w) is most unusual , as this species is
known as a sphecid wasp kleptoparasite . It is possible that P. pictipennis is capable
of breeding in turtle nests although the presence of this species could also be due to
sphecid wasp nests being present in the sand and that infestation is due to sand
disturbance during excavation."
