Re: New girl for the summer.
yes, you definitely do have Mutillidae up there. when i worked for the traveling zoo for a while, we went all over the east coast, and midwest. i specifically remember seeing them where we were near Harrisburg, PA. the first one i ever encountered was in Orange, Virginia about two weeks prior to seeing them in PA.AntsRule wrote:Does anyone know if PA has a sp. of these?
