Fatgs

It is the largest Neotropical wasp in the genus Polistes, and in Paraguay it is called 'hummingbird wasp' because of its great size.1

Its name in English is a translation of its Latin scientific name, which means 'executioner'.1

Its mandibles, the jaw-like mouthparts, are short and wide and have teeth.1
