Five-banded Tiphiid Myzinum quinquecinctum - Myzinum quinquecinctum - Male
Essex, Ontario, Canada
September 7, 2004
In 2004, the males used the same Blanket Flower or Indian Blanket (Gaillardia pulchella) plant to congregate at night. When the leaves and flowers became too brittle for them to sleep under, they switched to Goldenrod (Solidago).
