🐝Asian hornet
Aasianherhiläinen (Vespa velutina) on Kaakkois-Aasiasta peräisin oleva herhiläislaji. Laji on kooltaan hiukan eurooppalaista herhiläistä pienempi. Aasianherhiläisen voi myös tunnistaa keltaisista jaloista. Aasianherhiläinen on iso tumma myrkkypistiäinen: kuningatar voi olla 30 mm, koiras 25 mm ja työläinen 20 mm pitkä. Ihmistä kohtaan laji ei ole erityisen aggressiivinen, mutta sen pisto voi olla vaarallinen allergisille ihmisille.
