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

Anaishi

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

Amerika Kaskazini

Nyumbani

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

Urefu

2.2 cm (0.9 in)3

ukubwa wa kawaida wa mnyama mzima

Kasi ya juu

Hula nini?

Adults feed on nectar and also eat other insects. Foraging workers bring chunks of caterpillar back to feed the larvae.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua

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

Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: 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

Kudungwa

Sumu hutoka kupitia mdungo.

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

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

Akidunga

Kwangua mwiba wa nyuki na upoze mahali hapo.
Mtu akipata shida ya kupumua, uso au koo likivimba, au akijisikia kuzimia, hiyo ni dharura ya mzio: piga namba ya dharura na umtumie kalamu yake ya adrenalini kama anayo.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ana kasi gani?

Inzi wa nyumbani takriban km 7 kwa saa (4.4 mph)

Ringed paper wasp takriban km 28 kwa saa (17 mph)

Mtu anayekimbia kwa kasi takriban km 37 kwa saa (23 mph)

Ukweli

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
