However, cases that A. bruennichi preyed on hornets (Vespa spp.) have been rarely known. On the contrary, the hornet is one of the natural enemies of the wasp spider. In the present study, observation of an unusual case regarding the consumption of a yellow-vented hornet Vespa analis insularis by A. bruennichi with wrapping is reported. The finding could provide a new insight into the predator-prey relationship between orb-web spiders and hornets., Serket, 18(1), pp. 67-69; 2021}, pages = {67--69}, title = {Consumption of a hornet by a wasp spider, Argiope bruennichi (Araneae: Araneidae)}, volume = {18}, year = {2021} }
