Summary

[edit]



Description

This appears to be a eucerine bee; tribe Eucerini, subfamily Apinae, family Apidae. Judging by the unusually long antennae (from which the tribe gets its name), this would be a male. Found in a garden in Burleigh County, North Dakota, on an early August evening. It appeared to be sleeping on the end of a plant with another of its kind that flew away eventually.

If anyone can confirm this bee's identity, and/or identify a genus or species, that would be greatly appreciated.
