Description:

I think this was the first confirmed state record (Maryland) for this species (Coelioxys immaculata). It was found in Caroline County in a sandy area. Not clear what it is a nest parasite of (almost certainly a Megachile). Something for someone to do....good amateur project. Picture by Amanda Hong.
