Lesser Banded Hornet
Vespa affinis
Lesser banded hornets inhabit forests, gardens, farmland, and settlements across much of southern and southeastern Asia. Adults hunt insects, scavenge animal matter, and collect nectar or other sugars for energy. Females defend themselves and their nests with a venomous sting that can be used repeatedly.
