Synoeca is a genus of eusocial paper wasps found in the tropical forests of the Americas. Commonly known as warrior wasps or drumming wasps, they are known for their aggressive behavior, a threat display consisting of multiple insects guarding a nest beating their wings [2] in a synchronized fashion, and an extremely painful sting (rating at the highest level of 4 in the Schmidt sting pain index).
A sting comes from the abdomen; in most insects (which are all largely hymenopterans), the stinger is a modified ovipositor, [16] which protrudes from the abdomen. The sting consists of an insertion wound, and venom. The venom is evolved to cause pain to a predator, paralyse a prey item, or both.

In the suborder Symphyta, the eruciform larvae resemble caterpillars in appearance, and like them, typically feed on ...
During pregnancy the pain and abdominal cramps may be confused with other conditions. [7] [8] A case of preterm labor initiated by a redback spider was relieved by antivenom.
