Pepsis thisbe

A very large species of tarantula-hawk- these reach and often exceed 4cm in body length- this species targets large mature aphonopelma.
Those poor Aphonopelma, docile as they are, don't stand a chance.:(:(
They do occasionally get victories if the wasp screws up, but that's rare and environmental in nature. generally when the spider does manage to bite, its usually a double-KO because of how long the sting is, and both die.
