Kheilwar wasp

Kheilwar wasps were a type of exotic creature with fatal stings. In 34 ABY, the cargo vessel Sketter's Quarrel was discovered dead in space after its crew were stung to death by kheilwar wasps that had escaped from a damaged shipping container on board the vessel.

The Sketter's Quarrel had been carrying a range of creatures to deliver to Regent Solculvis of the Mol'leaj system, who maintained a collection of exotics. Members of the Sector Rangers law enforcement agency investigated the vessel, and information from their file on the case was included in Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious, a book authored by Police Commissioner Exantor Divo and published in 34 ABY.
