Social Wasps

 I highly  recommend the book  The Social Wasps of North America

:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58964391-the-social-wasps-of-north-america

 Social Wasps most likely to be encountered in the Yukon are:

Vespula, ground yellow jackets

Vespula acadica

Vespula infernalis

Vespula intermedia

Vespula consobrina 

Vespula alascensis

Dolichovespula aerial yellow jackets

Dolichovespula norvigicoides

Dolichovespula alpicola

Dolichovespula arenaria

Dolichovespula arctica

Dolichovespula maculata

Dolichovespula albida

most of the Yellow Jackets i have  ID-ed, came in the house, i would catch them in glass jar, photograph them and release them.

I have observed  in the house (or yard)  most Dolichovespula species, ( exept  D.albida) 

Ryan has an observation in Whitehorse from D. albida

For the Vespulas i have many observations from V. alascensis, and one from V consobrina.

Checking the observation on inaturalist for the Yukon, Vespula infernalis and V. alascensis are most observed and some V. consobrinas.
