Description:

Summary[edit] Description: This is one special bee. We did a paper a few years ago and went through the 800 or so bees found east of the Mississippi River and looked for those that had not been found in the last 20 years. This was one of them! So Sabrie Breland collected this special bee in South Georgia near the border with Florida. interestingly, the few past records are all Deep South Records except for a series collected on one day in New Jersey in 1910 near Philadelphia by H. S. Harbeck. Could they still be there? 15:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC)15:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC){{{{{{0}}}}}}15:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC)15:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC) All photographs are public domain, feel free to download and use as you wish.
