black and yellow sawfly - Macrophya bifasciata
Baiting Hollow, Suffolk County, New York, USA
May 24, 2009
Observed on Apple mint (Mentha sp.). There are spurs on all legs, visible in this photo on the left rear leg.
I've added so many images because none of them seem to show the wasp very well can frass them later.

New for Bugguide.
