Ropalidia Sumatrae wasp I spotted this wasp while on an epic 8 day bus trip from Bandung to Singapore and back. That is an 8 page saga in itself, so I won&rsquo;t expand on that here. Enough to say that the bus broke down in the middle of nowhere, so I grabbed my camera and scanned the roadside shrubbery.<br /> <br /> Location is Sumatra, Indonesia. Roadside shrubbery.

Ropalidia Sumatrae wasp

I spotted this wasp while on an epic 8 day bus trip from Bandung to Singapore and back. That is an 8 page saga in itself, so I won’t expand on that here. Enough to say that the bus broke down in the middle of nowhere, so I grabbed my camera and scanned the roadside shrubbery.

Location is Sumatra, Indonesia. Roadside shrubbery.
