Summary

[edit]
Description

As the name implies this species from East of the Andes superficially resembles the parasitic bee genus Nomada. However for whatever reason they have chosen from the wardrobe of bee colors the same cloths they act quite differently. Of note is that both the males and females of this species gather oil in addition to the usual pollen and nectar. Check out the pointed tips of this male's antennae too! Another beauty from the Packer Lab at York University.

The murmuring of bees has ceased; But murmuring of some Posterior, prophetic, Has simultaneous come,--


The lower metres of the year, When nature's laugh is done,-- The Revelations of the book Whose Genesis is June.


-Emily Dickinson
