Arthropod Photo of the Week: June 21, 2023
Grass-carrying wasp
Isodontia elegans
Hymenoptera: Sphecidae
By Mark VanderWerp, BCE, Michigan, USA
#arthropodPOTW
ALT Closeup of a wasp perched on a bunch of small white, hairy flowers against a sky-blue background. The wasp has black eyes and antenna, a black thorax, and rust-brown legs, wings, and abdomen. The wasp's abdomen is connected to its thorax via an extended narrow black “waist” (as narrow as its legs), giving the effect of its abdomen appearing held out away from the rest of its body.

I always get such a kick from seeing Gasteruptiid wasps! They seem to love Golden Alexander, as its the only flower I've seen them on.
