Bergson, quoting Fabre, has made play with the supposed extraordinary accuracy of the solitary wasp Ammophila, which lays its eggs in a caterpillar.
"According to Fabre's observations, which Bergson accepts, the Ammophila stings its prey EXACTLY and UNERRINGLY in EACH of the nervous centres.
Vegetation of the study area can be recognized as coastal sand dunes dominated with
Ammophila arenaria and Euphorbia paralias and inland areas dominated with Haloxylon scoparium and Asphodelus aestivus [9-11].
It can concluded that the high protein, moderate fiber contents and high in vitro digestibility found in
Ammophila arenaria, Trigonella maritime and Vicia monantha, Vicia sativa, Ononis vaginalis, Atriplex nummularia and Lycium shawii make them good quality wild forage plant species that can be used in ruminants' nutrition under Egyptian rangelands conditions.
On coastal dunes,
Ammophila breviligulata is often planted as a management technique to slow dune advance.
Because restoration of degraded dune systems is occurring and likely to continue, we examined the occurrence of amphibians in drainages associated with a coastal dune ecosystem degraded by invasive plants (European Beachgrass,
Ammophila arenaria, and Iceplant, Carpobrotus edulis).

In fact Emery and Rudgers (2012) reported that
Ammophila breviligulata, a native dominant dune-building grass of the Great Lakes inhibited growth of Centaurea in a greenhouse environment while its own growth was unaffected by the invader.

To support the return of natural sand dune movement and enhance habitat for the birds, the team implemented a plan to remove invasive vegetation, including European beachgrass (
Ammophila arenaria), iceplant (Carpobrotus edulis) and Sydney golden wattle (Acacia longifolia).
