The Hornet is an enemy from Final Fantasy IX. It can be found in Gizamaluke's Grotto. In the endgame, it can appear in groups of four, making it a suitable target for kill-farming for the 10,000 enemies defeated achievement.

The Hornet likes using Buzz to inflict Berserk on a character. Quina can learn the Blue Magic spell Vanish from it.
