''Dolichovespula'' is a small genus of social wasps distributed widely throughout the Northern Hemisphere. The yellow and black members of the genus are known by the common name yellowjackets in North America, such as Dolichovespula norwegica, along with members of their sister genus ''Vespula''. In a study on the nesting biology of ''Dolichovespula,'' ''D. maculata'' was found to have the largest population count at 771.〔Archer, Michael E. (September 2006). Taxonomy, distribution and nesting biology of species of the genus Dolichovespula. Entomological Science 9(3):281–293.〕 ==Overview==
A set of morphological differences distinguishes them from ''Vespula''. The most noticeable is the long face (''dolikhos'' = "long" in Greek). Viewed from the front, ''Dolichovespula'' faces are long, while ''Vespula'' faces are short and round. The oculo-malar space, the distance between the eye and the mandible, is long in ''Dolichovespula'' and short in ''Vespula''. ''Dolichovespula'' nests are usually aerial, while ''Vespula'' often nest underground.
