Small brown paper wasp, Ropalidia revolutionalis is known for the distinctive combs they make for their nests which they build each spring. They can be helpful because they control insect pests in gardens. However, if threatened, they will sting humans and cause large amounts of pain.
Also known as the Stick-Nest Paper Wasp, the nests consist of several combs each about 100 mm long with two columns of cells hanging downward that resemble sticks hanging from a branch.
