"The yellow-legged hornet, #VespaVelutina, is native to #SoutheastAsia. It's a close cousin of the northern giant hornet," VespaMandarinia, also known as the #AsianGiantHornet — or, more frighteningly, #MurderHornet," for the deadly and violent havoc it wreaks on #BeeColonies." #Bees #BeeColonyCollapse
