I expected this to be one of the Lepidophora bee flies when I first saw it, but quickly realized the abdomen was completely different. It looks superficially like Toxophora amphitea, but there are no iNaturalist observations for that species in Missouri. I have a lot of additional images if a particular view would help.

The photos all seem to show a pale yellowish cast on the posterior dorsal abdomen, but in the field I thought it looked closer to whitish. I suspect the camera picked up reflected light from all the Rudbeckia, but maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me.
