Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: 12/10/22 first day of observation was a bit colder than usual, don't remember the temp. It was slow and I was able to pick it up. Was sighted in our yard for 4 consecutive days, it warmed up later and it was harder to get close to it. Found mostly on Trixus inula which is a plant it might be familiar with from it's normal range. It was still blooming at the time.
