Field Notes

Beautiful, bold, multi-colored pattern on large (20-35mm), black body. The young begin as black w simple yellow stripes.
Habitat:
Short-grass habitats and sparse, weedy vegetation
Notes:
The geographic distribution of this species is the Midwest to Southwest, but beginning every Summer North MS is swarming with these guys, with adults easily spotted in September. Are they a slight adaptation of the given species?? Beautiful sight whatever the case.
