''Apocia flavissima'' is a paper wasp found primarily in South America. The species is distinguishable by its light coloring, unique single comb nests, and nocturnal nature.〔 A notable feature of this species is the size dimorphism between queens and workers. Unlike most Vespidae wasps, ''Apocia flavissima'' queens are smaller than their worker counterparts which results in unique intraspecies relationships. ==Taxonomy and phylogeny== Originally, ''Apoica flavissima'' was thought to be a variety of ''Apoica pallida'' because of similar color and physical characteristics.〔(【引用サイトリンク】date=May 16, 2007 )〕 It wasn't until 1972 that J. Van Der Vecht identified that three distinct species were mistakenly being categorized as one. Today,''A. pallens'', ''A. flavissima'', and ''A. gelida'' are identified by differences in male genitalia.〔 In addition, distinction can be made through slight color differences. While ''A. flavissima'' are entirely pale yellow, ''A. pallens'' are mostly yellow but have brown legs. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that ''Apoica flavissima'' are most closely related to ''Apoica pallens''.〔
