Vespa philippinensis
Vespa philippinensis, the Philippine hornet, is a species of rare hornet found in the Philippine Islands, primarily on the island of Negros. It is a ground-nesting species with a similar body structure to that of Vespa tropica. Only one known occurrence of the hornets' nest has been recorded, where a colony was found and collected, although there have been 12 sightings of individuals before. It was described by Henri Louis Frédéric de Saussure in 1854.
