Vespidae, commonly known as wasps, are characterized by their elongated bodies, narrow waists, and distinctive yellow and black coloration. They possess two pairs of wings and are known for their social behavior, with many species forming colonies that include a queen, workers, and drones. Vespidae are also predatory or parasitic, feeding on other insects or nectar, and they can deliver painful stings when threatened. Their role in ecosystems includes pollination and natural pest control.
