Wasp-mimic longhorn

Açıklama:

Neoclytus scutellaris--found running around near my compost heap. I thought it was a cricket at first, with those long hind legs. I guess it is a wasp (or ant?) mimic. Captured and chilled slightly to slow it down.Identification notes: See linked BugGuide page and references therein--this species has a distinctive dorsal pattern.
