Perdita swenki, M, Face, MI, Alger County

Small, small, and a lover of sand dunes. Restricted to Sand Dune and Deep Sand habitats and thus uncommonly found and often restricted to protected areas. This one from Pictured Rocks National Lake Shore. Of course you noticed that it had 13 antennal segments and extensive yellow on its face making it a male.
