Is this a Paper Wasp? -
Polistes dorsalis
-
Jerome, Yavapai County, Arizona, USA
September 3, 2009
Having looked through the guide the closest I can find is Mischocyttarus flavitarsus - Paper Wasp. Is this even close?
This was sharing the plant with Carpenter Bees, Milkweed Bugs, and Great Golden Digger Wasps.
