Pigeon Horntail, Tremex Columba - Tremex columba - Female
Geneseo, Henry County, Illinois, USA
July 23, 2005
This pigeon horntail was doing a weird little dance while I was photographing it. It was either showing defense or getting ready to oviposit eggs. Identification was made comparing to other photos in the guide.
