Triepeolus sp101, m, face, Cochise Co., AZ_2016-09-30-18.01

One of a few undescribed Triepeolus that Molly Rightmyer left undescribed after her revision of the group North of Mexico. She simply labeled it Sp. 101. This one was captured by Tim McMahon in Cochise County, Arizona. I think the side shot taken with some of the large orange pollen is artful to an extreme and one would like to have it float down the hallways of corporate America to remind them of some of their indirect customers. Pictures taken by Kelly Graninger.
