  3. This could be either Vespula germanica or Vespula vulgaris. The markings on the head are different - you can compare them if you have captured it from another angle.

''Vespula vulgaris'', known as the Common wasp, is a species found in regions that include the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, India, China, New Zealand and Australia. It is sometimes known in English as the European wasp, but the same name is used for the species ''Vespula germanica'' or German wasp.
