Dintlha

1

Its predation is one of the main causes of colony failure in the paper wasp Polistes chinensis in Japan.1

2

Unlike most aerial hornets, whose nests are completely sealed, its nest has an open bottom.1

3

Its nest is kept at 25 to 30 °C until about the middle of October, when it cools towards the surrounding temperature as the nest begins to die.1

4

It was found on Guam in August 2016 and has since become a permanent resident of the island's ecosystem.1

5

It may play a significant role in controlling populations of Asian paper wasps.1
