wasp

Wasp

Description:

Two pairs of wings. An ovipositor, or stinger. Few or no thickened hairs; except Mutillidae, Bradynobaenidae, Scoliidae.

Habitat:

All wasps build nests, although they vary in their nesting preferences. A wasp habitat is a paper-like nest made from wood fibers that have been chewed into a pulp. A yellow jacket habitat is a nest built below the ground surface. On the other hand, a hornet habitat, like a wasp's, is above ground.
