...inae living in colonies build nests in dark caves, trees, hedges or attics. A single state with a queen, workers and drones can comprise up to 7000 insects. Labour is organised - the Queen only lays eggs while the workers are responsible for nest building , nest cleaning, food procurement and feeding the larvae, and the drones are responsible for the fertilization of young queens. To avoid inbreeding, some drones leave the nest and look for females from other populations. While the old queens usu...

Vespinae, with the exception of hornets, belong to the colony building Paper wasps, another category of Vespidae which are often difficult to distinguish. Vespinae are larger than the other Vespidae, the body being broader which is the decisive criterion for differentiation.
>> Wasps
Mating occurs in spring and the males die afterwards. Shortly thereafter, the females start building the nest on bare, dry, sandy soil sites. For this purpose they dig a main gallery, which is up to 60 cm deep and leads into the ground, and into diverse brood cells (incubators). The entrance to the nest looks like a crater surrounded by a small...
