Not to be confused with the Moss Hornet, a similar Hardmode enemy.
The Hornet is a pre-Hardmode flying enemy found in the Underground Jungle. They follow the Flying AI, floating just out of reach and then charging the player, while also firing stinger projectiles (at an increased rate in Expert Mode(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)). The stingers cannot be destroyed with weapons and travel at about the same speed as the darts from a Dart Trap. Stingers have a 1/3 (33.33%) chance to inflict the Poisoned debuff on the player for 10 seconds. In Expert Mode, the chance is 1/3 (33.33%) for 20 seconds and 2/3 (66.67%) for 2–10 seconds.
Variants
All variants of Hornets have identical drops. The Moss Hornet is not a variant of the pre-Hardmode Hornet.

Notes
- (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) In For the worthy and Get fixed boi worlds, Hornets fire stingers roughly twice as quickly and release a burst of stingers in random directions upon death.
Trivia
- Though the Dragon Hornet appears to have only one stinger like the Hornet, it can drop up to three.
- In reality, a hornet is a type of wasp, and is also the largest species.
- Despite real hornets not being able to shoot their stingers, they can sting multiple times and can potentially be fatal, especially to those who are allergic.
- The Bestiary entry for the Hornet: "Aggressive flying insects which swarm the jungle depths. Their venomous barbs discharge over great distances at high velocity."
