Osmia calla, f, back, Mariposa, CA, 2017-07-13-17.03
Osmia calla, f, back, Mariposa, CA, 2017-07-13-17.03Ah the glow in the dark Mason bees of the West. Very jealous...we don't have this model of Osmia out east. For some reason bright green works for a whole passel of Osmia and the related Hoplitis. Funny how this blingy green/blue/purple invades certain genera of bees and is completely absent from others. What is the driver. I like to think it is bee aesthetics.
