I realize the photo is at a bit of an odd angle, but it's the only one I have of this individual showing 3 diagnostic characters: the rounded margin of the forewing, the red medial band on the hindwing, and the orange-banded abdomen.

Observed only one these Melissodes Rivalis feeding on a large patch of Thistle in a field.
"Long-horned bees are a genus of bees (Melissodes) that emerge from their nests in the summer months, typically starting in July and coinciding with the onset of flowering in their preferred forage plants: those in the Asteraceae family. These beautiful, robust, medium-size bees are effective pollinators of many open-flower forms, including sunflowers. The insect’s common name is derived from the unusually long antennae that most males sport. Females have long, pollen-collecting hairs on their hind legs that resemble saddle bags."
