Black and White Insect


I found this interesting insect in my yard today. I can not identify it.

  1. I haven't found the exact species yet but I believe it is a wasp mimic (moth). I have seen some that look like bumble bees around my yard and even though I know its just a moth it still stay back. Here are some good examples of wasp and bee mimics

  2. I think you are right. One thing that caught my eye was the "hairy" abdomen. Beside its beautiful colors.

  3. I like the microscopic videos and I need a microscope too.
