Abstract
This is the first record of Xenos moutoni, a specialized parasite of hornets ( Vespa spp.), in Korea. Among six Vespa species collected with bait traps in Andong, central South Korea, approximately 10% of female Vespa analis (gynes plus workers) were parasitized, whereas the other five species ( V. crabro, V. mandarinia, V. simillima, V. ducalis, and V. dybowskii) were not. Almost all parasitized hornets had a single female parasite in the gaster.
