yellow-legged hornet
Vespa velutina nigrithorax
48.7104, 2.12557
Field Notes
Description:
Hornet about 1 inch long, black with one large band of yellow on the abdomen, and yellow tibias.
Habitat:
In my garden.
Notes:
I never saw this kind of hornet before, neither did I find it in any of my books on European insects. The reason is simple, it is in fact an asian species, introduced in France since 2004 or before.
