Oryttus sp. - Crabronidae - A2a.jpg

I photographed this wasp in a sand dune area just north of Rolling Hills Alberta. It turned out that this constituted only the second record of this genus for all of Canada, the previous record being from southern Ontario. It is also quite probable that this is a different species which would make it a new species for Canada.
