Leioproctus (Ceratocolletes) xanthosus on Haemodorum planifolium (Blood Root Lily) Interesting photo because of the expanded antennae tips.
There are only two species of Leioproctus (Ceratocolletes) showing up in PaDIL so this being Leioproctus (Ceratocolletes) xanthosus, as Leioproctus (Ceratocolletes) antennatus appears to be only in Western Australia.
