Brachypanorpa sacajawea
Brachypanorpa sacajawea is a species of short-faced scorpionfly in the family Panorpodidae, described by George Byers in 1990. It belongs to a genus characterized by reduced wing venation and abbreviated rostrums compared to other mecopterans. The species is known from a small number of observations in western North America. Like other Panorpodidae, adults are likely non-feeding or feed sparingly, with larvae presumed to be detritivores in soil or leaf litter.
