Dieunomia heteropoda on Helianthus hirsutus - Dieunomia heteropoda - Female
Lena Park, Starke County, Indiana, USA
July 31, 2015
Size: medium-large
Joel Gardner informs me this is a female Dieunomia heteropoda. The flower is Helianthus hirsutus -- I took the photo on a sand prairie near a pocket marsh on a warm afternoon. I'd appreciate help in confirming this identification -- I see that this would be the first photo posted here of this species in Indiana. I have additional photos, if needed.

Dieunomia heteropoda
Thanks John!
I've posted a couple of additional photos, but didn't link them because they aren't the same individual. One appears to me to be a male.
I appreciate your help.
