In flight, the sesiid arches its abdomen which gives it an even more pompilid wasp-like appearance (Suppl. video: TC 03:01–03:43). This clearwing moth actively uses the long hind legs for locomotion or to cling on to a rock during puddling (Suppl. video: TC 01:51–02:12), in contrast to, for example,
