| phylum | Arthropoda | Vespa dybowskii (the Black hornet) is a species of hornet in the family Vespidae. It is native to East Asia, found in Japan, Russia, and China. This small to medium-sized hornet is notable for its social parasitic behavior, where its queen usurps the nests of other hornet species like Vespa crabro to raise her own brood.
