Pennsylvania Diptera for ID - Hybomitra lasiophthalma - Female
Reading PA, Berks County, Pennsylvania, USA
May 28, 2019
Disturbing the peace inside at my workplace as folks ducked from or swatted at the "bee" flying about. I was enlisted as the resident naturalist to deal with it. Turned out to be Diptera, not Hymenoptera. Submitted to get further with an ID.
