Paper wasps (polistinae) is a subfamily of eusocial wasps within Vespidae (wasp family). Their name is slightly misleading, as members in this subfamily are not the only wasps that make nests out of paper. Queens begin establishing colonies around May, which will last to October.

Mischocyttarus is primarily neotropical, and is the largest genus of social wasps with ~200 species. They build single comb nests, which can be found in forests close to rivers as well as under the eaves of roofs. They typically do not sting, but rather ram into threatening individuals.

I’m a taxonomist at heart and a naturalist as a result. If you were to go on a hike or walk with me, it would likely take hours, mainly because I have to stop to look at every beautiful creature I see (especially if I don’t know it yet) and swipe a picture.

My goal is to showcase the beautiful and diverse creatures of this Earth while teaching the NFT community about their biology and life history.

This is a limited series. The total number of creations, 121, was determined based on the total number of described species on Earth (approximates).
