| ...ey bees (Apis mellifera). To detect prey they deploy their visual skills as well as their strong sense of smell. When a flying honey bee is clearly identified, the attack is immediate. The bee wolf catches the prey with its front legs and, using its sting, injects poison into the uppersurface of the waist of the prey. The correct place to sting is located with special sensitive hairs. The bee cannot resist, because its own sting cannot fix onto the smooth surface of the bee wolf and is thus not able to penetrate the outer surface. The bee wolf’s sting causes speedy paralysis of the honey bee. The bee wolf then presses out nectar and body fluid from the prey with its powerful front legs and eats this immediately. The bee itself is not consumed and is subsequently dropped. Transport of the prey int... | | |

Wasps have a smooth sting which they use to inject crippling substances into their prey and to defend themselves (even by spraying poison) and this sting can be used again and again. The Honey Buzzard and the Ichneumon wasp are natural enemies of Vespinae.
For humans the German wasp and the common wasp are especially problematic because these live in the most populated colonies. Wasp stings can cause? allergic reactions, often in conjunction with severe itching or pain. The greater danger is from bacteria, such as salmonella, which the wasp carries on its sting and can thus be transmitted to the person who is stung.

| | | The common wasp is found in almost every kind of landscape. In areas inhabited by humans, wasps are considered a nuisance in autumn time. The venom of the wasp may cause allergic reactions. When wasps sting hormones are released and this can encourage other wasps to sting. Due to this a large swarm of this kind of wasp poses a great danger to humans. | | |

The abdomen has the typical black-brown/yellow colouration of wasps, and comprises 7 segments in the drones, 6 segments in the females. which besides is fitted with with 2 numbers of similar dripped designs, The females have a poisonous sting at the end of their abdomens; the drones lack this sting but have, in its place, sex organs. The wings of the european hornet are reddish-orange in colour. A characteristic feature of this insect (apart from the body size) is the deep humming tone produced when flying. | | |

Spider wasps are completely black or black with a red base colour on the abdomen. Spider wasps have a poisonous sting. The sting of spider wasps can be painful, but is usually harmless for humans. | | |

But the largest part of the body, the yellow-black ‘ringed’ abdomen with the poisonous sting, is the hallmark of the bee. Bees with poisonous stings are part of the Aculeata group. | | |
| | Bumblebees | | Bumblebees (Bombus) are a genus of social bees. Since these Hymenoptera have a sting for defence, they belong to the stinging bees. There are approximately 250 species of bumblebees. They live mainly in the temperate and cooler areas of the northern hemisphere. There is a particularly large variety of species in Europe and Asia; In Europe there are approximately 70 spe... | | |
| | Because there is a huge variety of hoverflies their appearance and colour varies enormously. They can look similar to wasps, but they are not dangerous and have no sting. This mimicry protects them from their enemies. The body shape of the hoverfly varies from long and thin to compact. Some species are hairy. The front part of the head is shaped like a muzzle and the mouth parts are designed for sucking up li... | | |

The sides of these cells are almost parallel and only slightly curved. Queens and workers have a poisonous sting, however the queen’s has degenerated as a result of egg laying. | | |
| | Panorpidae | | ...dae have an elongated head (beak shaped) with mouth parts for chewing and biting. The flies have 4 large dark wings, which are worn on the back when the flies rest. At the end of the abdomen the males have a genital segment, formed like a scorpion sting, while the end of the females’ abdomen is pointed and with a tubular organ for egg-laying. | | |
