Answer:

Yellow jacket.

Step-by-step explanation:

In North America the yellowjacket or yellow jacket is one of the common name of a social predatory wasps of the Dolichovespula and genera Vespula.

In other English-speaking countries we can name these as simply as "wasps" to the members of these genera. Like eastern yellow jackets most of these are black and yellow in color.

Some are black and white and others may have red abdomen background colors instead of black.
