BG700 C7236 Asilid - Lasiopogon - Female
Gloster, Gloster Arboretum, Amite County, Mississippi, USA
March 31, 2007
Size: body length 10.7 mm.
Collected on sandy edge of small clear stream by Caroline Bauder and kindly loaned to us for photography. This is one of a mated pair. After a bit of time with Herschel Raney's key, we think this may be in the genus Lasiopogon. The male may be seen here.

Sorry, I don't know Asilids well enough to ID, but I'm curious what camera equipment you use? ... these photos are quite lovely
