Apioninae on White Wild Indigo - Trichapion rostrum
Plymouth Rock, Winneshiek County, Iowa, USA
June 17, 2008
on its larval host plant, White Wild Indigo, Baptisia alba
In this prairie planting there are lots of White Wild Indigo plants but usually I find very few seeds.
However, in 2013 there were some pods full of seeds.
