Large Rose Sawfly - Arge pagana

Arge pagana is entirely black, except for the abdomen which is yellowish orange. Because of the dark, blackish wings, which are kept over the abdomen, the orange colour may not always be clearly visible. The legs are mainly black as well, with some orange on the hind leg femur. Like all species in the Arge genus, the antennae have only 3 or 4 segments, with the end segment being very long.
