The wasp is also distributed in mountainous areas of central Viet Nam and the southern part of China. All distribution records are from areas with more-or-less distinct seasons in terms of temperature. The nest is described and compared with those of other Eustenogaster species. A nest collected during early spring in Tam Dao National Park in northern Viet Nam, where there is a more-or-less distinct 'winter', had five males and six virgin females, suggesting that both sexes overwinter on their nest.456012 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQL1 .A436 no.3534, 2006Eustenogaster nigraEustenogasterEustenogaster -- Behavior.Eustenogaster -- Wintering.Eustenogaster -- Nests.Eustenogaster -- Geographical distribution.Vespidae -- VietnamWasps -- VietnamInsects -- VietnamSocial evolution in animals.text
