Rhyssa crevieri is a species of ichneumonid wasp in the genus Rhyssa, first described by Provancher in 1880. The genus Rhyssa contains large, conspicuous ichneumonids commonly known as giant ichneumon wasps. Members of this genus are characterized by their elongated bodies, long antennae, and notably long ovipositors used to access wood-boring host larvae. The species has been documented in North America, with limited observational records available.
