Hemipepsis ustulata

Hemipepsis ustulata is a species of tarantula hawk native to the Southwestern United States. Tarantula hawks are a large, conspicuous family of long-legged wasps which prey on tarantulas. They use their long legs to grapple with their prey before paralyzing them with a powerful sting. Their stings are ranked second-most painful in the insect world. The tarantula hawk is also the state insect of New Mexico. They are a solitary wasp species, displaying lekking territorial behavior in their mating rituals.
== Description ==
H. ustulata generally has a matte black body with rust-orange wings. It is among the largest of Hymenoptera, growing up to 5 cm in length. It is difficult to distinguish Hemipepsis from its Pepsis relatives. However, Pepsis tend to be a more metallic black with a deep-blue striped patterning. Since their biology and appearance is so similar, the only reliable way to tell them apart is by their wing venationpatterns.
