This species can be found in most of Europe. Prefers sunny forest edges with rich, tall herbaceous vegetation and inland dunes and fallow lands. This species hunts large orb weaver spiders (family Araneidae). The wasps paralyze these spiders with their poisonous stings and drag them into their underground nests. Then they lay an egg into the abdomen of their prey. Adults feed on nectar; they like to visit flowering umbels, raspberries and thymes.
Parabatozonus lacerticida female body length 16-22 mm, male 12.5-17 mm. These spider hunting wasps have a mainly black body, with yellow markings on the abdomen. Wings are orange, with a brownish band on the tips of the forewings.
