  1. common wasp

    A common wasp is a type of flying insect known for their characteristic black and yellow body, two pairs of wings, and a sting on their abdomen. Generally, they belong to the genus Vespula or Dolichovespula within the Vespidae family. They are often found in temperate regions and are noted for their role in the ecosystem as pest controllers but can also pose a threat to humans due to their potentially harmful sting. Common wasp species include yellow jackets and hornets. They create paper-like nests from chewed wood pulp, which can be located in the ground, under eaves, or within wall cavities.
