The autumn Proctacanthus found in central Florida have long, brown wings and reddish legs and poorly marked scutums. These are typically traits of Proctacanthus longus. However, note that this population all have black and white hairs on the mystax. The description of P. longus and milberti in Hine (1911) both indicate a pale mystax, though P. philadelphicus has black hairs mixed with yellow. The central Florida individuals also have black hairs on the palpi, which is a character shared by P. milberti and P. philadelphicus according to Hine (1911). P. longus has pale hairs on the palpi.
These may be Proctacanthus philadelphicus. More study of this central Florida population is needed.

This beauty was attracted to our front garden that is full of bees. I got to watch it repeatedly attack carpenter bees and sweat bees, though it wasn't often successful.
