Summary

Description

What a lovely leaf-cutter from the coastal dunes of Florida. I particularly like the stubtle metallic glints on the top of the abdomen. What a fantastic finish this would make to tricky out your yet black car. This species was collected by Anthony Abbate as part of his ongoing survey of Dune bee species. How vulnerable are these bees to sea level rise? A lot, pilgrim, a lot. 14:30, 30 September 2016 (UTC)14:30, 30 September 2016 (UTC){{{{{{0}}}}}}14:30, 30 September 2016 (UTC)14:30, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
