The ringed paper wasp is a large, red-and-black wasp that lives across the eastern half of the United States. It builds papery nests under overhangs, often close to rivers and lakes, and many nests are grouped together in big clusters. Its red-faced look is easy to spot once you know what to look for.1

Živi v

Eastern United States, from New York to Florida, west to a line from South Dakota to Texas1

Severna Amerika

Domov

Nests hang from branches of trees and shrubs, and sometimes in sheltered parts of buildings. Large groups of nests are often built on the underside of rocky cliff overhangs close to rivers, where they are shaded for most of the day.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

Rust-red head and thorax (the middle part of the body)1
Mostly black abdomen with a single, prominent yellow ring at the end of the first segment1
Bright orange tips on the antennae (feelers)1
Narrow first abdominal segment1
Males and females both have red faces, which is unusual among North American paper wasps1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: Darker P. bahamensis lacks the yellow markings on its mesopleuron (side of the middle body) and has less yellow on its mesosoma. Metricus and darker forms of P. fuscatus have no contrasting orange antennal tips and a wider first abdominal segment.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

Co-foundresses on the nest defend it, and the nest is hung on a stalk that keeps many predators away.1

Če piči

Čebelje želo postrgaj ven in mesto ohladi.
Če ima poškodovanec težave z dihanjem, otekel obraz ali grlo ali se mu vrti, kot da bo omedlel, gre za nujno stanje zaradi alergije: pokliči številko za klic v sili in uporabi njegov adrenalinski avtoinjektor, če ga ima.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
Če te piči: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti

vredno vedeti

Dejstva

Unlike many related species, it is fairly tough in winter, and it stores concentrated nectar as a kind of honey before hibernating.1

Its colours closely match those of P. metricus, which lives in much the same area, so the two look alike to predators.1

Several females can share one nest, with up to 22 cooperating foundresses recorded in a single group.1

A single nest can hold around 500 cells, far more than the nests of many other paper wasps in its genus.1
