Description: Bryce Canyon in Utah is not just magnificent canyons and spectacular scenery, it also has lots of very small bees such as this one… Lasioglossum pacatum. One of about 200 or more species of Lasioglossum in North America, this group may be responsible for more pollination of more plants than any other group, simply because of their diversity, and the fact that they are out all year long, except for the winter, and their sheer numbers. Numbers That we have only recently realized and documented from the trapping. You, will likely not pay much attention to them even though they are nesting throughout your lawns and pollinating all the little tiny weeds in those lawns. These small, nonunion, workers, working without pay and almost entirely without acknowledgment make the world much better place, something that we all could do more of. Have you think your Lasioglossum today?

Description: Today, having been dulled hunting bees in the heat I have decided to write this account in Latin (translation at the end). Lectio flagranti as we say. Have septum templi prope chartæ extremitates. Halictus hudsoniellum hic. Abdomen nigrum vel nigra circa quam est quaedam autem fictilis per imaginem suam vogued underlayment rubrum. Hoc est apis occidentis, sed, sicut de ea uvam occidentis apes non sneaks a Badlands in Meridianus Dakota, ubi argilla inquinant gumbo communis inopia fruticum ac aspirant ad meridiem vegetabilis plus mentis habitu. Sic enim in multis apes, scilicet distributionem et deficient et in loco lineae clara demarcate in insulis et in sinu contingat extra septa normalis noxiorum, qui nescit unde quaerere. Non est enim beeographers cetera. Ranges Have Edges. Lasioglossum hudsoniellum here. Rather than a black or near black abdomen it has vogued its image with some brick red underlayment. This is a western bee, but, like bunches of them western bees it sneaks into the Badlands of South Dakota , where the clay gumbo soils and general lack of vegetation aspire to a more southwestern vegetative outlook. So it is with many bees, distributions fail to demarcate themselves in bright lines and instead islands and pockets occur outside their normal ranges to titillate those who know where to look. There is no rest for beeographers. Date: 3 June 2020, 16:23. Source: Lasioglossum hudsoniellum, f, back, Pennington, SD_2018-11-16-13.16.53 ZS PMax UDR.

Description: The underside of the head of Lasioglossum heterognathum. An uncommon species that has the feature that can be seen here, which is that the recessed area that holds the folded tongue (the hypostomal cavity) widens out towards the mandibles rather than stays as a parallel sided slot like other Lasioglossum species. Yawn, I know.
